So who cares?

What's the point?

This is 1999/2000 and has absolutely nothing to do with the way things were
done in 1930, 1940, 1950.

Many thanks to those in Solms who were smart enough to do the right things
to keep the Leica product line viable.

It takes a special mind to always rearrange inevitable facts to look like
doom and gloom rather than the blessing that it is.
