There will always be interest in collectables, but the primary focus is on 
photos.  LSI also has a very close relationship with Leica AG and Leica USA, 
and it?s getting more international every time we meet.  There will be a 
spring shoot in Rome in May (dates to be determined).  There will also be a 
spring shoot at the new Leica USA facilities in Teaneck, NJ.  Next annual 
meeting in October will be in Wetzlar hosted by Leica AG.
