RE: OT Re: Nikon El Nikor 75mm f4

Dave and Kerik, If it is OK to talk about and offer for sale salts, paper,
etc., then why would an enlarging lens ( quite possibly used to make

simply delete the message. I don't see that many post from Nick offering
used gear.

It is more subtle than all caps but still a louder cry then a period.

There is more flotsam on this list than the small amount of for sale items.

He did put OT in the header. BIG tip off there!
