Hehe.  Right.  Ever heard of "black tape"?  Leica must *really* love all
those people who stick black tape over their cameras to remove all
identifying marks.  Do you ever hear of Canon, Nikon, or users of any other
manufacturers' cameras covering up the markings with black tape?

And then we argue endlessly about how superior the Leicas are to all other
cameras.  You gotta love us.

M. (who, if he could afford one, would instantly cover up everything on an
M6, save the red dot and mount a red softie, just for the hell of it ;)
