Sometimes I don't, of course. Sleep is good. My opinion is that it's OK to discuss photography with any rangefinder cameras on the Leica list. A good rangefinder camera that is not a Leica can serve only to challenge Leica Camera to make better products, and a bad rangefinder camera that is not a Leica can serve to remind us of what we like about doing photography with Leicas. But I promised you something off topic. I participate at the edge of the community of intellectual property law. Today I got word of a trademark dispute between "whizzinator.com" and "the genuine Whizzinator". If I were these people I'd want to stay far away from lawyers. You can see the product of the holder of the "Whizzinator" trademark at http://thewhizzinator.com/ (Undetectable! Foolproof! Re-usable!) Prepare to be amazed.
