+1 to what Nathan said.

I joined the list many years ago mainly as an educational adjunct; there is
only one other person here in Oklahoma I know who has ever used a Leica
(Ken Carney, co-president of the OKCLUG) and the last Leica dealer closed
after the last big oil bust in 1982.

I still read the LUG because I still learn things from it (including from
the excellent travel photos and descriptions posted by Nathan and others)
and I like to keep up with the old timers such as Howard Cummer and me.

I wouldn't change a thing..........well, maybe I'd like to be 30 years
younger, but beyond that I'm happy with it as it is.

And Brian:  What is this thing you call "retirement"?  ;-)
