As I said before, I am a relative newbie here, but I just want to make sure
I have this survival thing right.

Rules

1.    Defend braggarts who pretend to be New York Times journalists and are
not.
2.    Hold camera accessory marketers to New York Times journalism ethics;
3.    Condemn Southern-style ribbing as hatred;
4.     Hide any real experience in Photography
5.     Cover up the M6 or CL engraving with black tape,
5.5    (Oh hell, just put tape over the illumination window too, to remove
all flare).
5.6    (While we're at it, tape over the viewfinder and use an auxiliary).
6.     Pretend that it takes two strokes to wind our non-M3.

Is that about it?  Do I have it right yet?

Regards,

Sonny Carter
