Good God, man you've been "through" it all!!!
(I did have to ask didn't I!!!)

WEll, I thought you'd have quite a list, and it was all interesting reading.
As you've advised all of us "youngsters", tho....I'm sure you'd have "made it"
with a 50mm lens on that ol' argus
 (BTW the "brick" is the C3, and I have 
one in perfect working order...I've even shot a roll with it!!!--and you know 
what, they were good negatives...but I wasn't in a bar in the dark, either!)

Thanks, and have a great weekend, 
Walt in Denton
