I agree.

Here's my take on this year's cover - it's analogous to the "Where  
were you when ...(insert iconic event of your choice here.)"  The 2009  
book is a snapshot - no pun intended - of where we all "were"  
photographically the year full frame Leica M became reality. Lord  
knows there will be an M12 or so by the time I can buy the M9, but I  
can look at the photos here to inspire me to work to improve enough to  
justify buying one.

Just my $0.02.
