[Leica] OT I think - Letiz saw blades???

[leicar at q.com (Aram Langhans)]

Thanks Douglas.  Been away from e-mail for a few days while visiting down 
here is sunny SoCal
 
Man, did we get hit with a quake last night.  Only 4.5 (been through larger 
in Seattle), but it was very different.  A two jolter about 5 seconds apart, 
with the second one going on for about 10 seconds (in my mind).  
 
Aram, a shakin' and not quite bakin' in SoCal
