Bernard, a legal partner(?!?) declared in this here public forum known as PDML:
"Please be advised that our client, Mr. F Therriault, has been declared unable to look after his own affairs by a judicial order instigated by his family. A few days ago, Mr. Therriault started an action against certain members of the Pentax Discuss organization. This action will proceed, as Mr. Therriault is not deemed compentant to dismiss his council, and his legal guardian feels this action has enough merit to go ahead." Commiserations to you Frank, it seems that it is all out of your hands now. I will be sure to visit you in the Loony Bin, and I will endeavour to pass the hat around to fellow PDML'ers so that we may all be able to put in for a Pentax oriented "Care Package" for you too.... Pity, don't think they'd have any Photo Lab facilities within those padded walls though.... At least it will make great sound insulation, no more worries about noisy autofocus or shutter sounds... BTW, your LX MLU never did stop working, that was just crazed mind of yours playing tricks on you... tan.
