Precisely the problem of such cavalier acceptance of OT stuff,
Ted. If we accept one man's idea of OT material, then all must be
accepted. To do otherwise is, after all, completely unfair! There,
do I sound like a goody goody two shoes now?
As the S/N ratio gets farther out of whack, with time, there could
come a day when we'll wake up some morning and no longer
recognize the Leica-Users List! (Sorry, Thomas Jefferson, about
this hacked paraphrase of one of your classics with regard to the
money system)
