Ken,

Mine has never been quite that generous, but on occasion she has been quick
with the plastic! But not Leica quick! :) However, she has promised "when
she wins the lottery!" :)  she'll buy me whatever new Leica gear I want! I
thought she was pretty good with that.:) The trick will be to get her to
keep the promise when it happens.:)

Now I just have to wait my time. :)
