However, recently, I have started to be followed by individuals who have upwards of 80,000 people they are following. To do this properly, they would require an entire office of proxies to do the keyboard work. I realise the reason they're following me is because the want me to follow them However, the reason I bring this up is that I'm curious about the sudden spate of these guys - aside from their own vanity, and whether they're onto something that makes them money? Unimportant in the general scheme of things, but I am eternally curious :-) Douglas _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
