Subject: [Leica] in defense of tom finnigan....

since tom was sorely misrepresented in the leicastacking photo i'd posted
previously, i present this one,

http://www.asc.upenn.edu/usr/cassidy/pix/pad/46/leicastacking3.jpg

where tom is saying "come on, ya east coast lightweight, finish that
martini and put your M3 on top of this stack, ya coward! don't make us
have to take you out back again and work you over with a sack of jupiter
lenses."

as you'll note from the lens hood, tom's m6 had already taken a fall that
night after he'd balanced it on top of an M6J, a rusty M2 (that i was
never fully convinced worked), my m6, RP Johnson's M6, somebody's gold
plated luftwalffle iiic and a fabrige egg someone brought along because
they didn't have enough leica's to stack.
