[Leica] ted leaving the lug?

[images at comporium.net (Tina Manley)]

Isn't it a shame?  We are really going to miss Ted around here.  Somebody on
the Lug sent him a really rude e-mail and he decided he'd had enough.  Ted
has never been anything but kind to everybody and I can't imagine anyone
being so unkind to him.  I hope all of our supportive messages got to him
before he left.
