There are now 17 people on the leica-users mailing list. That's enough
that I can probably ask the question that prompted me to form the list
in the first place:

Has anybody worked out a good system for how to load modern film into
an old Leica? I find that I can't do it unless I carefully take a pair
of scissors and cut a longer tail on the film, but I often do this
wrong and even when I do it right it takes several minutes. Is there a
trick? Is there a tool that cuts the long film tail (e.g. something
sold for use with a bulk film loader?).

When you reply, please try to use whatever "reply" command you have
that sends replies to the original "To:" field as well as to me.
That way everybody sees the answer.
