Cc: Sender: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Precedence: bulk Reply-To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Good Morning Lugnuts, Apologies in advance for this non-Leica-specific post, but thought (some of) you might find the following interesting, in that we are sometimes accused of being aficiandos of an anachronism: In the current (6/16) issue of TIME, on the first page of letters-to-the-editor (TIME does not number its pages) is an ad for Blue Cross/Blue Shield (the middle of a sequence of three on successive right-hand pages). It shows a man with a panicky expression, the background suggesting the running of the bulls at Pamplona. His camera is NOT the latest P&S, NOT an M6, NOT an R8, NOT even a Minilux, but........... ta-da!........ a Kodak Pony 135. Hey! I bought my wife one of those in the 50s! Now why d'you think the ad agency did that? Stan Yoder Pittsburgh
