RE: [Leica] Digital Longevity

Patrick,

Thanks for the kind offer!  I'm wiring now, and should be done with that
soon, and it's MA LAW that you have to have plumbing done by a licensed
plumber (you can electrocute your self, if you want to...but you, legally,
can't get your self wet...sigh)....and going to let someone else do the
insulation ;-)  Then, it's on to wallboard...and again, someone else will
have that pleasure!  Now, the wainscoting and flooring are open to
suggestion ;-)

Regards,

Austin
