[Leica] Erwin Puts Leica CD-Rom

[john.o.newell at comcast.net (J. Newell)]

This is a combination of a public thanks to Marc for sending me the copy of 
the CD I ordered (and received) and a plug for this very nicely produced CD. 
 This makes a very nice companion to the LHSA viewfinder DVD.  I'm enjoying 
browsing through the documents (some of which, I should note, are not in 
English but are fun in any case).
