Let me say something, maybe you're falling down over some prejudices since you're so new and already made up or could figure out how we are... Maybe you need, as any other would, some more reading about our ideas on or off Leica gear...anyway we're human beings before Leica users, photographers or amateurs. And let me say other more thing, do you really love us ? So, I certainly believe in what should be called cyber love at first sight. It sounds a little weird but possible. I suggest you to relax, have a drink, fasten your sit belt and prepare yourself for one of the best flights over the Leica lands. You'll learn a lot if you'll be able to open your mind and keep your eyes as wide as a Noctilux. The last days were something weird for all of us but we are reliable, knowledgeable, kind and more stuff like that... in just a word we deserve the best for being humans and secondly for being Leica lovers. At last I'll refer to your new Leica gear. On the side of the M6. 35/2 and 50/2 you will not be disappointed, IMO. But on the side of the 90/2,8 ( I would not like to start or restart or renew some old 90mm lens thread, I suggest you to give the LUG archives a look) you'll maybe feel that the lens is worst than we, the group you declared your loving. At last, have a nice day, take your camera and lenses out or in and take some images. welcome Leica lands - -- Pablo Kolodny www.pablokolodny.com > From: "Fred Sears" <edseas2@shore.net> > Reply-To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > Date: Tue, 4 Sep 2001 20:38:01 -0400 > To: <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> > Subject: [Leica] I absolutely love this newsgroup! > > What fun we are having discusssing everything unrelated to Leica!
