Re: [Leica] Dentists and Leicas

I think that it is as much a right of B.D. to denigrate anyone he pleases,
just as it is your right to take exception! There is "right" not to be
offended.

IMHO: Sell as many Leicas to whomever can afford them! Keep the dollars
flowing into the Leica coffers. It can only be good for me.

Cheers!
