I think we can be pretty sure the thief's equipment choices were purely related to what he saw as "modern" and therefore hockable, rather than anything else. I might add as a final note that when my son called my daughter, all concerned about the theft, he very kindly offered to send her his Mamiya C330, assuming that her Rollies had been stolen. When she told him that the Rollies had been left neatly lined up on her bed, my son reportedly couldn't stop laughing. :-) -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Daniel Ridings Sent: Sunday, June 20, 2004 1:19 AM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Here's a camera reality check - On Sat, 19 Jun 2004, B.
