Who would he try to impress ? You ? There are many fools on this list; you are a bigger fool to try to correct their posts; I am the biggest fool to even reply to yours. I just don't care for the tone of your orginal post. You could just ask Ted if he had used Canon lenses. - - Phong :-( > Date: Fri, 19 Feb 1999 10:45:35 -0800 > From: "Kotsinadelis, Peter (Peter)" <peterk@lucent.com> > Subject: RE: [Leica] long lens tests > > Robert, > > Not difficult, just speaking the truth.
