The problem with the two boys making the Leica requests is... they are both taller than I and some what intimidating! So I either have to win the pottery and buy them their own user models or give them mine and buy new ones for me. However, I have this underlying sick feeling, that if I were to buy several new bodies, she who must be obeyed would not take it kindly.... winning the lottery or no! ;-) So I can assure you there many side effects to having grandchildren running around and asking to use your leica gear. Not that I don't let them now, as how else will they know the difference between the King of the beasts from the pointie-shooties! ;-) ted Ted Grant Photography Limited www.islandnet.com/~tedgrant - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Brick" <jim_brick@agilent.com> To: <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us>; <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> Sent: Tuesday, April 17, 2001 4:12 PM Subject: [Leica] PROCREATEUS RESULTUS > > > >Argh!
