Jerry,
  Canon sells the body alone for 899 and the body with lens for 999,
checking on my calculator to make sure, I come up with 100 difference.
  Now I could be mistaken but I suspect Richard was jesting about the lens
being 999 and the body being free, lighten up, it's not the end of the world
that he made his choice.  His choice.  His opinion.  Nice thing we still
have here - at least for now given the current Washington thinking.
Bill

Richard

Then WTF did you refer to that lens as a $100 lens?

Canon has never given anything away free.  Try another story,
