Bryant: Thank you for your post. The board does seem to have it's share of,
high stressed individuals (you put that so nicely). I do feel that a lot of
the flame throwing is really not needed, nor is it typical of the majority of
the Leica folks I meant through out the world. I guess it's easier to act an
arsh when your behind the key board.
Cheers Wilber
