====================

As a scientist and evolutionary biologist I do believe in peer review
and incremental improvement based on criticism and "natural selection"
of improved kinds/behaviors [notice the off-topic-bait ;-) ] - so the
quote above was kind of a sad statement to me.



I appreciate the many positive comments on my frustration with the LUG
- some off list.? Looks like there is much to learn about managing
an unwieldy list with the right kind of software.



Otherwise I will stick to the Rollei Users Group as I have done for 10
years or so (great job, Marc!) which has much less volume and does
tolerate the occasional Leica or Zeiss gear question.... ;-)



As for Leicas in cold weather and the right gloves, I could use some
advice.? My woolen US Army surplus gloves didn't quite work this
morning at minus 20 F.? Something thinner is needed that lets you
feel the controls better but still retains body heat and can slip into
warmer mittens when done handling the camera...



Thanks,

Jan
