Great anecdote
BTW, no wonder Pentax DSLR's do not sell well in Canada. As far as I know,
there was never made *any*!

PS: None was sold in Europe either...

This reminds me of an anecdote, told by Harvey Mackay in one of his books,
which goes something like this:

There was a shoe company, and they wanted to expand their sales. They send
a salesman to the heart of Africa. After a couple of weeks, he writes back
to the head office: "Business is terrible. Send me home. No luck at all.
The people here don't even wear shoes!"

Well, the company decides to give it one more try, so they send their top
salesman to Africa. After a couple of weeks, he writes back to the head
office : "Business is great! Send me more shoes. *No* competition at all!
Nobody here owns *any* shoes!"
