How helpful! "Uh, I need a part for one of your cameras." "Have you a part number, sir?" "Well, no, I need the part because I don't have one right now." "But we need a part number before we can order it." "This is a camera that ~you~ made. Don't you have a part number?" "You must understand, sir, I work for Pentax UK. The cameras are not manufactured here." "You must understand, sir, I bought the freaking camera from a retailer who obtained it from ~you~. You are the agent for the manufacturer. If you don't have the part number, then how am I supposed to get it? Let me remind you, I don't have the part in the first place." "Sorry, but I really can't help you." etc. etc. etc. <sound of customer wailing and pulling hair out> -frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
