Funny thing is, the "joker" (your word, not mine) is one of the best and
most dedicated photographers on the LUG and when the chips are down, can,
and does, give detailed information unobtainable anywhere else. To know him
is to love him. Filtering, in this case, is a giant mistake.

In amongst the prose, which for some unknown reason some folks cannot
mentally sort out, are jewels of wisdom which are seldom found in such a
spontaneous environment.

Now about the grumpy "old" guy. There are only a few of "us" and we're all
grumpy, so you need to be more specific.
