Ted, firstly glad to read that you are sounding feisty again. I was 
concerned when your last post used words like workflow and RAW
and such. I thought that you had caught some weird gearhead virus ;-)
Now what's this about you not having an M8 any more!!??
Cheers
Geoff

Guys, Guys, does all this stuff really mean anything or aren't we just 
beating a dead and dying horse going over and over all this
techie stuff when you could all be out taking/making pictures.

Besides like I said before, nobody in a hundred years is going to give a 
rats ass what you shot, how you did it, what camera, what
film, what fix and all the other things that go with our last hundred years 
of photo taking & making.

Jeeeeeesh get a life! Go take pictures and stop rattling on about all this 
stuff.

Most of you are damn fine shooters so whatever you use go use it and to hell 
with all this babblefish! Hell I'd bet most don't know
what half the techie words mean anyway! :-) 

Yeah I know some guys get off on this stuff, but nobody in a hundred years 
is going to care what you've said, thought, imagined or
did! Because if they're going to do anything, that is if any photo stuff 
survives. "is look at pictures!"

Unfortunately according to many of you there'll be nothing but empty CD's, 
gooey neg residue and bugs eating the print paper. Like
so big deal! We're all going to be dust to dust ashes to ashes or whatever!

Now I feel better! Thank you,

Now I no longer have an M8, I'm going to take a quiet walk about and shoot 
some cool stuff with my Digilux 2 using all Auto RAW
images, ASA 100, a Leica lens and relax!

Have a nice day.

ted
