Dante I will certainly accept enthusiastic and pro Leica as fair
descriptions of my approach. Defensive for Leica too. Overly aggressive I
think is unfair.
The responses were meant to be factual however. For example in response to
comments about pricing of the cancelled R10, I quoted the Leica authority
that said how much it would have cost. That is different to an opinion or
desire.
