It was just that I happened to watch The O'Reilly Factor on Foxnews last night, and was struck by the hardships that several families seem to be having since the relief is only slowly being getting to the victims family. I had told my wife that even though I am not a real big advocate of re-incarnation, I sometimes feel like I might have been re-incarnated from a previous life of some one who might have died in WWII. I was born in 1946, but I have always had an affinity for 'old fashion' things- I used a fountain pen in elementary school, much to the chagrin of some teachers, I love big band music- since I was a kid even, and feel more comfortable with my old IIIb or IIIa than I do with a modern camera!!! These recent events give me a roiling feeling I never had during the Viet Nam War; I just hope and pray you weren't touched by the tragedy, and that your family stays close together. I wish I could help more, but I am sure some other LUGgers will step forward. Stay well, and hang in there. sincere regards, Dan - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
