Subject: [Leica] Leica marketing tour - for this guy it's madness

I got a flyer in the mail yesterday from good ol' Leica USA touting
their big road show tour.

Great! I'd love to see the latest gear.

Oh - but I have to pay them $100 to participate if I want to see the
M9 and $150 for the S2.

I found myself almost irrationally irritated by this. It's tone-deaf
to the times, at least in the part of California, and they don't
appear to offer anything (besides possibly some hands-on experience) I
can't get from the net and a visit to my dealer.

I'm just shaking my head.
