Subject: [Leica] Leica article in NY Times

Funny they quoted Ken Rockwell, given that he is so widely despised by
online forum denizens. That said, both of the things Rockwell said in the
article are true. Most lenses made today are plastic garbage designed to
be disposable, and owning an expensive camera will not make you a great
photographer. Both true.
