[OM] Fungus in lens update

I posted a question recently on fungus in lenses.  It seems that I had
quite a bit of it in one of my 50 mm f1.8 lenses.
Most of the replies did diagnose the problem as fungus, but one of the
list members took it a step further.  He emailed me with instructions
how to disassemble the lens and clean the fungus from the glass
elements.

I am happy to report that the lens has been cleaned, all fungus removed
and reassembled.

I really wanted to publicly thank this member, but alias he never would
give me his name.  He chooses to remain anonymous.

All that I can say, is thank you very much who ever you are!
