 Hi,
I'm new to the Rollei List and I want to thank in advance anybody who can give 
me any help or feedback on this problem. I hadn't used my 6008i in about six 
months. I charged it and now when I turn on the camera I get a split-second 
viewfinder message indicating that the battery is charged but then I get a 
message that looks like:? --L--
except the L is rotated 90 degrees to the right like a table on one leg. The 
result is the film won't advance. When I press the shutter, nothing. 
I can't seem to find my manual (I thought I knew the camera well enough and 
tossed it in some drawer) and I don't remember ever seeing "L" in the 
viewfinder before. Any help would be much appreciated and if anybody knows 
where I put my manual...

David

as part of my thankless analyst job, i've had to follow the congressional 
action with the stimulus, TARP, TALF and housing bills.  "bloviate" is 
a concept with which i've become very familiar, and a work i use almost
daily, as with:
