You do go on.

Audibles just don't seem to matter to me (except when Iowa is in the
Big House using them to beat Michigan).  I like the distant crashing
sound of the OM-2S shutter.  Otherwise, though I know each of my
cameras sounds a bit different, I can't keep them straight in my mind.
 I should give up photography, but there are other parts of it that
appeal to me.
