Even Ted has never resorted to fighting, but maybe that is because his wife is usually at his side.... :-) As has been mentioned often by our host Brian, the best thing to do when you see a post that gets under your collar is to ignore it and/or delete it. Just seems that I've felt it necessary to stay low and ignore an awful lot of stuff lately :-(. Maybe it's the onset of tax season. Anyway, stay cool and take pictures. It's not necessary to read or respond to every post. On a happier note, it was a lovely day here today which made it a delight to go out when some meetings finished early with a couple of Leica lenses (21, 35, 90) and some ACROS, and a Noblex and Neopan F. - -- * Henning J.
