Subject: [Leica] No respect for the barbie cam man

Yes, sad as it is, Kyle uses a barbie camera in addition to his M6. If it
were a color photo, you would see that it is bright pink & comes w/a fuzzy
angora camera vest. There I am next to him holding a beer & a IIIB&scnoo. I
am vindicated in that I've just seen GIJoe WWIIphotgrapher uniform. GIJoe
uses a black LTM leica! I'm off to Kmart to buy that mini leica!

Just email me if you want to see the GIjoe WWII photog package. I found a
jpeg on ebay.

i get no respect.... 

                                                        Of course Cassidy
gets no respect.  Imagine, he show up at a major photo 
                                                        event with a 1950's
era technology camera.  What do you expect? 

                                                        Of course, when he
uses a more modern camera like he is in this photo:

                                                        When people read the
brand name on the camera, how do you expect them to 
                                                        react? 

                                                        I'm surprised that
the Germans haven't raided his home and seized his M6.
