As an outside observer watching what is happening with the US elections, all I can say is that I'm glad this didn't happen before the Berlin wall came down. If it had, maybe the communists might have reconsidered..... !!!
:-))

please - I don't want to start an off topic discussion on politics - I'm just poking some harmless fun.

Compulsory OM content: If I had been been in Berlin before the Wall fell, I would have used a 16mm to take a shot of the Wall from *real* close (if the guards would let me) - would make for some great perspective effects!!

Yeah - but what are they going to do with all the chads they punched out of
the film sprocket holes?

The following Olympus model designations will be observed in Floriduh:

OM-2000 = OM-1999
OM-4 = OM-3
OM-3 = OM-2
OM-2 = OM-1
OM-1 = M-1 and thus become instant collectibles

OM-10 = OM-9 and is now considered state of the art, having bypassed the
OM-5, -6, -7 and -8.

OM-20 = A vote for the Redundicrat candidate...
OM-G = A vote for the Democlod candidate...
...thus nullifying each other...and so on with the OM-30/F, etc.

is3 = isNOT!3, etc., with resulting squabbles settled by
paper-rock-scissors.

XA-XA4 series will all be counted as pregnant due to shape of clamshell
cover.

Furthermore, 24-exposure rolls of film may contain 12 or 36 exposures,
depending upon the county in which the film is purchased.

Results from Olympus digital cameras will be examined for attempts at
pixel-stuffing.  Any pixel-stuffing discovered will be baked into Christmas
turkeys.
