Martin, trust me,  faster than the Bionic man could run! ;-)

Sometimes taking action is far more effective than everyone blabbing on
about sending e-mails, faxes, phoning, whatever.

Heck if these guys pooled all their dissatisfied gear in one big pile in the
middle of a parking lot, rented a pavement steam roller, then called the TV
networks as well as notifying whomever at Leica they were about to flatten a
couple dozen or more of their "poorly built plastisized camera bits with
viewfinders that flare and rangefiders that go out of sync etc etc etc" and
would they like to come along for a first hand viewing it would be
wonderful. As the media would like to interview them after the flattening.
;-)

Of course if they brought along a bunch of new exchange cameras the
flattening and international embarassment of Leica & Hermes wouldn't take
place.
Oh God the thought of a steam rolled pile of Leicas is almost making me
cry.;-)

But hey guys if you get revenge and new cameras what the heck eh? ;-)  Great
publicity for th 6 o'clock news. ;-)
