Steve,

I was trying/failing to make a joke about the idea of being "equipment 
deficient" when I'm lucky enough to be able to shoot with a Leica.  It was 
those words I meant to refer to as sarcastic (although now I think it's not 
the best word), not your kind compliment which was very much 
appreciated.  In retrospect what I typed was not entirely clear...I think I 
could have done much better with facial expressions and vocal cues, but 
sometimes I forget the limitations of email.

So, to be clear, thank you for the compliments and I'm glad that you liked 
the photos.

Recovering from a hangover, struggling with word choice, and neither seeing 
nor intending any offence,
Aaron
