We have had gatherings at B.D.'s, but I was unable to attend the last one due to familial obligations...I was hoping to host one in the Spring...hopefully, my construction will be done by then... It would be a daytime event/barbecue/run naked through the daisies, pin the tail on the donkey, Leica fashion contest...etc. Just kidding, we have no daisies in the field ;-) Austin > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us]On Behalf Of Patrick > Jelliffe > Sent: Friday, January 03, 2003 6:19 PM > To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > Subject: RE: [Leica] Digital Longevity > > > Austin, > > Yeah yer right about the 'blad.
