I no longer use a 'slip-stick'...not even a "electro-mechanical..." calculator. I use a computer and even exel when the mood hits me. But your are write (right) about me and Alaska...I carry a 'previous century' leica iiic with me most places I go....I find it fits both my attitude...and my age. Love your site...visit it at least once a month or so...and I know you really enjoy your times in Alaska. Cheers Dave Stratton Fairbanks, AK
