I want to thank you publicly for sending the Sightseer around. I showed the camera to many people along with the story about how I came to be shooting with it. The general reaction was amazement at your generosity. Thank you so much for giving all of us the pleasure of using this tool for awhile. It was my understanding that it would return to you at some point and I hope it does.
Thank ** you ** Steve. Seriously, this has been entirely my pleasure. My wife thought I was mad for doing this. After she saw how it was going she commented in amazement at what a great bunch you all are. Naturally, she was the only one surprised. Seriously, this really has been entirely my pleasure and I am glad to have started this. Keep it going! I feel it is a form of paying it forward. Very positive energy.
Originally posted by Stratman Sorry to see you go woof, you'll be missed !! I hope things get better, and you can come back.
I'll be back. Just have to square some things away and catch up a little. My main concern is not being able to be here consistently and therefore letting this thing lag or die. This is a great project, best that I've had the pleasure with which to be associated and I want you guys to keep it going. Nothing says the camera can't start back round when you are done... consider it anyway.
Originally posted by Blue I'm honored to step in. You can resume where you left off any time you want.
Blue, thanks. You've been great and I owe you.

Originally posted by monochrome Sightseer arrived today and is soaking up the atmosphere on my side table, explaining this crazy club to my wife (in a way I never could), making the acquaintance of the Argus C I just got from Heather and generally behaving itself as if it has lived here all its life
Heh. Sightseer has made a lot of friends along the way. Enjoy Monochrome. Seems like a long time but it finally got there to you.
Originally posted by straightshooter Seaain, you will definitely be missed. "Go raibh míle maith agat" for sharing your vast knowledge of early Pentax cameras.
You have my e-mail so stay in touch.
Slán agus beannacht,
CW, a chara, thank YOU, and I WILL definitely keep in touch. As for the worries of life... Nár laga Dia do lámh... ever
Thanks guys... carry on.
woof!
