Hi Kyle,
Thanks for the sympathy and support me old son! Some how I feel my night of
flash infamy  will follow me for years to come and each time I say  "I shoot
by available light without fear! As me and my Noctilux are here!" ;-)

There will be some ner do well evoking the "Flashing Light Night in the Dark
Castle !" :-) casting aspersions of  "He can't do it all the time!" in my
ancient old face and slipping mind! ;-)  Then me, tired old Leica and
Noctilux will slink off into the darkened night in search for the " Holy
Grail of Night Light ! " ;-)
