Have any of you found the Easter Egg in the M6?

If you flip up the rewind crank, turn the ISO 
selector to 800, wind the frame counter to 8, 
set whatever lens you have mounted to f/8, turn 
the shutter speed to 1/8, and hold the camera
up with lens pointing at a white wall, a holographic 
image of Cartier-Bresson chanting "the decisive 
moment, the decisive moment, the decisive moment"
will appear magically before your eyes.  Really!
Try it, its so cool.....let me know if you can get it
to work for you too.
