If you read my post carefully, what I was saying was I was tired of people who criticize Leica owners as snobs and fools who think their equipment is good because it is expensive. Or that their pictures are great because they were taken with Leica glass. Nobody here was directly doing that, but the person who was calling people stupid for letting kids use Leicas was beginning to sound like that kind of vitriol. I wasn't calling anybody snobs, or fools or anything of the sort. I guess I was reacting (in somewhat of a knee-jerk reaction maybe) to that characterization of Leica owners (snobs and fools). That's all. I wasn't calling anyone anything. I'm ready to drop this... - -- Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.
