[Leica] Re: Film from the Santa Fe spring shoot

[jsmith342 at cox.net (Jeffery Smith)]

About 35 years ago, I was working as a child care worker in a group home for
disturbed teenagers. When I announced that I was leaving to go to graduate
school, one sort of nerdy, very straightlaced female childcare worker
mentioned to me that she had fantisized about going out with me because she
had never been with a villian type(!) before. Guess I still evoke that
sentiment.

Dang, we went to HK, China, and Japan, and didn't have a problem with the 
film (knock on wood). What's going on here?
