Sure is nice to get a timely "head's up," Ted... I guess you gotta
be in an "inner circle" to learn abiut these things in time to sign up....<<<<

Hi Michael,
No there wasn't an inner circle simply because the seminar was over, closed, finito two years ago. The people who organized it in conjunction with Leica USA for many many years were hounded to do just one more. It became this year and me once again the "instructor." ;-) As I had been for the previous12 years before 2003.

So with a past attendee contact list of several hundred dedicated folks they called directly until there were enough to fill the space. The number of people who could attend was limited to "accomodation and lecture space" in Rockport certainly not very big. Not like the good old days of 80 to a 100 attendees on Cape Cod and Kennebunkport.

This will be much like a small Leica family gathering of I believe 40? bodies and lots of Leica gear for fondling.

So it wasn't practical to throw it open for public awareness when there were so many ex=pat Leica Seminar members salivating for ....." just one more time!"

Sorry you feel left out but I hope this answers the situation.
regards,
ted
