Ugh!  Please.  Leica's deserve a place on the table.  They are aesthetically
pleasing things that add to the sensory experience of a good meal.  They
should be given a prominent place in the centre of a table.  They also like
company: The best method is for three or four photographers to meet, plonk
all their Leicas in the middle of the table and then order.

Besides, it's a lot safer than sticking it under a chair on the floor, where
any number of four-legged animals can slobber all over it.
