I am sorry to read this. My understanding is that the list was founded and is intended to discuss the use of mechanical rangefinder cameras and that the title "Leica Users" was simply used as a description since Leica was the only viable in-production mechanical rangefinder camera. Personally, I can no longer handle the volume of BS and snide comments on the list, so I am shortly going to reset my filters so that the list is dumped from the server rather than filtered into a file. Easier than unsubscribing and I can always reset the filters if the withdrawal is too much. I'll probably do the same thing with the Rollei list since it has devolved into a three way discussion of professional lighting equipment with the participants being Rabiner, Shell and NYCfotomaker.
