Subject: How to get a LUG'ers attention [was Re: [Leica] on Hawk Hill (long)]

Doug left out one enjoyable part of our Hawk Hill day (at least _I_
enjoyed it!).

The problem: How do you catch the attention of someone with an 560/6.8
             Telyt mounted on a shoulder stock glued to their eye on
             one of the first days of the raptor migration?

The answer:  Walk up behind, wait for a calm moment, and ask:

             Don't you need autofocus to get good bird shots?

[warning: stand far enough away that the 560 doesn't wack you as he
 spins around to explain what really matters.]
