Yes, this is the LUG and I fully agree with Tina. I wouldn't have joined had 
I not used Leica gear. And the cost? ... Well, look at Jim Shulmann, for 
example, he uses his 1950s Ms and glass and scans the pictures he posts, not 
too expensive, seems to me and the distinctive Leica quality is there, maybe 
even more so than with more recent equipment. As for the Yearbook (mine is 
still stuck somewhere in Oregon), I am sorry to say that I am not really 
interested in pictures produced by gear other than Leica, I can find 
zillions of'em on the net and in books. But I rarely come across images made 
with Leicas these days and that's why I am definitely FOR a Leica-dedicated 
Yearbook!
