I don't mind the cover. SWMBO now knows?there is at least one other person 
out there with an M9; I am not Leica's market of 1!

Sorry to read that you guys think that my M9 shot (taken with an M8.2 and
Leica lens) was inappropriate for the cover of a Leica Users' Group book.
Jim and I aimed for something to echo the 2007 cover with its M8. In both
cases it was meant to reflect a very significant milestone for Leica.
