Aww - come on, Mark!  I had decided that I was perfectly satisfied with my 
Leica set-up and would never need another lens.
I don't need to hear this!  Since I have never sold a Leica lens, I'm going 
to have to sell either my fat or skinny 90 before I can justify getting the 
apo.
It's like getting rid of a member of the family.  Plus I'll have to sell a 
lot of photos to be able to deduct this one.

Are you sure it's really that good?  :-}
