Ruben,
I think what Sonny is saying that the countries that are not represented
on the LUG are also good candidates for countries that don't allow free
speech.

I did a quick check ... not that I have a huge amount of global knowledge,
and the countries I KNOW don't allow free speech ... they're not
represented on the LUG either ... granted, most are poor countries with
not very many potential buyers of Leicas.

The LUG can get verbally excited at times. Some countries don't like
verbal excitement.

Daniel
