I am happy that no one recalled my November 2008 incident when I left three (or four) camera bags in the passenger footwell of my Dodge overnight, discretely covered with two jackets and some paper garbage. Lazy idiot didn't want to drag them up the stairs into the house in the dark, when I'd just have to drag them back down in the morning. Bags contained a few of my best ($$$$$) 35mm lenses, two camera bodies, a K20 and a 6x7 with 4 of it's lenses. Flash. Filters. Need I go on? Thank God for the Renters Insurance I had just taken out for the first time in 11 years, because I did not have Comprehensive on the car. So I had to pay for the broken glass, and the $500 deductible on the Renters. The "Replacement" insurance covered the other $15,000, though it took me more than a year to find a few of the pieces. What a relief!
