Colen's statements regarding dentists and their alleged propensity for Leicas and other high-tech gadgets. I neither made misstatements nor exaggerated in any what was said. I believe he totally missed the point of my original post to the LUG digest.<br> <br> 1. No one has any right to denigrate a person's profession, race or creed, or in this case, based on their ability or inability to afford and properly use a Leica. I'm sure if we substituted an ethnic group for "dentists" we would have seen a firestorm of complaints. And who even cares if someone buys a Leica and hasn't the faintest idea how to use it? That is their right. <br> <br> 2. I didn't realize the LUG was an exclusive country club which only granted membership to the elite few who the Almighty has determined have the divine gifts to properly use a Leica. Too much time is spent on testosterone-induced diatribes over whose Telyt is bigger than the next guy's Telyt. Grow UP!.<br> <br> Pete Klein<br> <br> </font> <BR> </html>
