Good grief. This is truly pathetic. And from a non Leica user, on the Leica
list. What the hell is going on here? Not that I really care. It just seems
so ludicrous. There are a lot of folks that make this list a joy. Folks
with a passion for photography. A passion for Leica photography. I'm one of
them.

And there is no one more passionate than Erwin. A man who has the greatest
Leica research facility at hand. A man who spends countless hours
researching and testing, and we are the beneficiaries. How did we get so
lucky!

Erwin, there are a lot of us (many hundreds) who are in awe of your work
and dedication. Your eloquent manner and precise descriptions are a joy to
be privy to.

You know the old saying, "one rotten apple can spoil the whole barrel."
Well... not here. With odds like 800 to 2, I believe you are in the majority.

Hip hip hooray, Erwin,

And many many thanks for your dedication and perseverance.

Jim
