Dieter,

You beat me to it! I just came home from Cologne after about 7 hours on the
road, and wanted to express my thanks as well to Erwin for organising the
meeting. It was great indeed to meet all these LUGgers again. The sight of 25
Leicas on a restaurant table, many of them black paint varieties of various
vintages, was truly amazing. But more amazing still was the conversation and
friendliness of it all.

See y'all in two years if not before...

Nathan
