Whether you agree or > disagree is up to you, but that is my take on it. A tangent it was not, Stephen. It was a direct frontal assault on the man's ethics, credibility and motives! Something that he is too much of a gentleman to ever have done to you. Erwin *talks* about, *not promotes* the new Leica products BECAUSE THEY ARE NEW! New stuff from Leica is bound to be in the forefront of Leica enthusiast's and owner's interest. If you equate enthusiam, as a result of testing that you and I aren't capable of doing, as promotion, then you and I are further at odds. - -- Roger, List-Owner The LEG (Leica Enthusiasts Mailing List) http://www.topica.com/lists/leica
