Subject: [Leica] I left my Leica on a train

No lost Leica's yet, I keep a close hold on them.   However, my wife just 
lost her cell phone last Thursday somewhere in New Mexico on our way back to 
Texas.    Tried to locate, but lo and behold...It was turned off.  ;-)  
Stopped service and now she has a new one.  ;-D
