The Canadian tour was so arduous that good old SuperRW needed a long holiday in warmer climes to recover. SRW took along a rather loose sounding Winder-M but what goes on beneath closed camera bags is better left unsaid on this august and high toned list. Suffice to say that SRW is in top form and ready to go but with a slightly silly grin on its face. I have contacted all the previous US people on the "modest proposal" list and only four people replied (probably email addresses changed). So here is a copy of the original post from many moons ago: PLEASE RESPOND OFF LIST TO jbcollier@shaw.ca as I am unsubscribing for the weekend. Remember the Canada bit is already done and I also now have the second body (spousal unit not too unhappy and I am sleeping remarkably near our house). Oh yeah, the message: > A Modest Proposal > > I will send my old Rapidwinder to any Leica-User for a one week trial. > At > the end of the trial, your only obligation is to send it on (insured) > to the > next chap(ette) in the line.
