[Leica] ANNOUNCEMENT OF A KIND. :-)

[pklein at threshinc.com (Peter Klein)]

Godspeed, Ted!  Here's to that perfect repair job, a speedy recovery, 
and a rapid return to behind the viewfinder. I don't have any single 
malt on hand, but I just toasted you with some *very* nice Armenian brandy.

Looking forward to the book, and to congratulating you on it in person soon!
