little matter of an overdone credit limit! (SIGH!)

an OM-2 these days)
P.S. My 18 year-old son is having a BLAST with the black OM-10FC,
manual adaptor, and lowly 50/1.8 that I got him for Christmas (thanks,
again, Tom!). And, it was less than the Olympus Newpic 60 APS that I
bought for my 16 year-old daughter.
Yeah, I know... I *should* be ashamed of myself for "hooking" youth. :-)
