Now I am confused - I thought the sudden stop brought the OM PC
back to life from the empire of the undeaths ;-)
Does this mean I can smash the lens with the broken rear element against
a wall and get a healthy nice lens back ??
**clonc** .. splinter - cool, anyone wants a nice hand full of glas-diamonts ?
Ummmm . . . this would require a negative entropy and that cannot happen in
our universe as we know it. Entropy can only be decreased within a limited
region if there is a greater increase of it elsewhere.
Thus, when Chris was able to create a negative entropy within the limited
region of the inside of his OM-PC, this resulted in your flinging your lens
into a wall at high speed and the greater entropy of the shattered rear
element. *How* the overall entropy increases matters not, just that it
somehow must. Therefore, you can blame Chris for the utter destruction of
your lens by him having fixed his OM-PC.
Hey, I have a couple covered bridges for sale too . . . with new roofing
and siding . . . "cash and carry" terms only (i.e. FOB their current
locations). Bring a BIG truck.
