Erwin, Say it ain't so. I would miss your expertise and knowledge of Leica.
The LUG would be diminished by your absense. There is a need for technical
knowledge to off -set our own sometimes emotional judgements on things
"Leica". Of course we can't all agree on everything and occasionally we cant
agree on anything, but thats what makes the LUG interesting. As for a learning
curve, most photographers have a slow learning ability. Most of the time we
keep repeating the same mistake, but we also learn to compensate for it. Your
knowledge and wisdom does stick, but we also defend our own choices ( mostly
because we have to rationalize spending large amount of money on lenses and
cameras, that only marginally improve the quality of our work, but we like the
feeling of opening one of those boxes with red Logos on and putting the latest
piece of Leica engineering to work).
 Please stay on and keep us informed.
 See you at Photokina and I cant really imagine the LUG's PostPhotokina
discussions without your input.
