However, the problem is a number of people reading these messages only read a few words, forget the rest and then the war is on. No fault of yours, they don't read very well in the fuzz of early mornings in front of the screen, actually the eye brain coordination has yet begun to funcation and fingers begin to fly without any idea of what the hell is out going, consequently the "fun idea" is lost. This would be the kind of topic that would work vey well sitting around a table with a few pints of ale in a discussion group. E-mail is wonderful but on some subjects it's a total disaster for tongue in cheek topics. the best for this New Year with lots of wonderful Leica images. ted Ted Grant This is Our Work.
