And here I thought GFM had everything to do with photography and especially Pentax... the ultimate list member get together ? I for one have been pretty entertained when reading about it (here in Finland). Maybe I will have the opportunity to join one year.
Please understand I am not writing this to any single person on our usually very friendly mailing list. Everyone should at least think about this for an odd second before throwing himself/herself into a mindless flame-battle. I am a ham (amateur radio) and we have strict rules of never discussing politics or religion on the air. This has been the rule for tens of years and it works. I wish the people on this list could also go along these lines and remember there are people from dozens of different nationalities on this worldwide list. If every one of them will start writing and yelling their opinions we can say goodbye to on topic discussion for good. Everyone is entitled to their own opition but please could you discuss politics and religion on the more appropriate places (like private e-mail or a dedicated mailing list). If you must discuss it in here, please do it in a civilized way and not act like a bunch of kids who all have had their lollipops stolen 5 seconds ago... And finally, I am sorry if I have upset anyone by saying these things. Thanks for listening and I hope you all have a good weekend and many photo opportunities, Antti-Pekka --- Antti-Pekka Virjonen Computec Oy, Turku Finland Gsm: +358-500-789 753 www.computec.fi * www.estera.fi > -----Original Message----- > I loved hearing about them too - although none had anything > whatsoever > to do with photography by the way. > Antonio
