Not even a glimmer.]<<< Hi B.D., My comment has nothing to do with California and everything to do as you expressed! If it weren't for the use of critters so man kind could learn medical techniques and medicinal drugs used for the benefit of the human race, the planet would be short many million people or more. And it might be one of us, our children, etc. who no longer existed!! Bad scene if you love yer kids and grandchildren. And as pointed out, this has absolutely nothing to do with the "learning cosmetic" stuff to just enlighten the looks of some over age ex-beauty queen to look more like a tart than a clean healthy mature woman! Those who want a false look of youth to crack the glass in Leica lenses when they have their picture taken, so be it! But if they really want that pseudo look of their bygone days, then let them offer themselves for experimentation! Seems reasonable to me. And for sure no smileys here either. ted - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
