But honest ladies and gentlemen has this subject not been beaten almost to death and still not accomplished anything more than folks with rattled minds, rebuttals of the ridiculous, creating hurtful feeling one onto another? You all know once in a while we hit on a subject that due to e-mail timing, begets a string of "you said, he said, I didn't say etc. etc and a multitude of other babble fest that in the end accomplishes nothing more than mainly hurt feelings, bad mouthing each other and finally rambles on into nothing. Certainly leaving a number of folks with rattled nerves and to some degree touches of anger. Trust me we on this list we're family, we do not need anger at anytime. The unfortunate side of the M8 for many has been the cost for a product they feel isn't worth it. While others are completely enthralled and using it quite successfully. Folks it's truly "to each his own." And in this case maybe "never the twain will meet!" Live and let live! We each have our own feelings and are free to express them in any form we wish. Unfortunately one of the failings of e-mail is the time delay of responses without face to face discussion. In this particular case as we read the "sharpening cutting comments" one unto another that quite frankly becomes nothing more than hurtful one onto another. Therefore may I suggest the folks with the problems pro & con get together in some fashion at a round table, a couple of jugs of soothing beer or ale, your choice and quietly like honorable folks discuss it face to face. And when completed, resolved or other wise, shake hands and leave as friends. A passing thought for the start of a new week! Now everyone take a deep breath, OK a couple, grab your whatever camera you wish, go out and shoot whatever kind of subjects you like to take. Have a good day. And lets get back to being nice to each other! After all we are the best damn family on the internet! The option? Be just another caterwauling gang like so many others? What think you lads and lasses? Fair enough? Let us talk of our successes and not dwell on this subject any longer. ted -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Robert Schneider Sent: Monday, April 09, 2007 6:45 AM To: Leica Users Group Subject: [Leica] News Ah Robert. You flunked the test. And I lied. All the outdoor photos were taken with the Tri-Elmar which had an IR cut filter installed. The clothing color is exactly as you see it. -------------------------------------------- Everyone was wearing purple clothing? What an amazing coincidence. Thanks for the lecture, however. Apparently I need it. rs __________________________________ http://www.robertschneider.com http://www.schneiderpix.com photoblog: Light Under a Bushel http://luab.blogtog.com _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
