At home (Canada), I'm 30. Here I'm not. People tell me I'm 32. "What the...!?", you say. Well, I did too. Age is,I was told, calculated from the time of conception. At first this didn't seem an especially helpful explalation. You and I both know that most people don't wait around for two years after conception to be born. I pointed this out to my korean friend and was told that it also has to do with the month in which you're born.... On the more mundane side I've been using leicas since about 1989 when I got an m3 with 50 Summicron. Currently, I'm using a IIIf with Summar, 90 elmar and 35 serenar. Since it's Friday, I might as well ask this too. Does anyone have a Russian Leica II copy thev'd be willing to part with? I get the digest so please mail me privately.
