I think a simple site giving the answers for frequently asked questions is a great idea that works well for just about any subject. Just clip out the comments about not asking the questions on the list. Then, it can be viewed as a resource rather than something to intimidate newcomers with. A list of basic facts about leicas would surely be helpful to people just learning about Leicas. It would even be helpful now and then for those who know their Leicas well. Some very informative posts have gone past since I've been reading this list. Putting some of those posts in a widely accessible place wouldn't intimidate anyone, as long as any language is left out that could be misconstrued as condescending. -Mark Walberg
