Aaaaaahhhhhh the anonymous shadowy figure in the darkend under ground 
parking lot whispers anonymously....... "The M end is near!"

And the faithful fall upon their knees crying, whailing with great gnashing 
of teeth pleading the end not cometh! The sky fills with blackening clouds 
and flashing Leica lightening!!!!!! Red dots rain from the heavens for 30 
days and 30 nights, all to avail. The end cometh sayeth the anonymous 
shadowy figure! ;-)

WOW!  What a great rumour to start mid-week, heck we should get a couple of 
weeks worth of exciting horse hockey rumour filled key pounding out of this 
one! ;-)

And the price on my M7's just went up a grand! ;-) Keep the rumours going! 
;-)
