Hi Tom,

Mine was on may 7th! A day that will live in infamy! 

Boy  I have to tell you the UFO's or planets really must have been out
of whack, as I also broke the finger focus piece off my 35 Summilux
while in Paris.  I had more damage on this project than almost any other
over the years.   So something was out of line.
