This is commonly called the Collecting Disease, Nathan. Dr. T is
starting to suffer from a serious but relatively harmless addiction. I
know what I am talking about, because I have been an OM Collector for
more than 25 years.
But two years ago, when I had to move house to a smaller apartment, I
worked the 12 steps program and now I have only about 40 items left.
Yes, you could say I am a social OM collector now.
I did own also own the quartz remote, and even the accessory Program
Timer TM-2 to increase the interval between pictures to over a week.
I must admit that I never used the latter... which characterizes ther
serious illness I have suffered from for decades. Collecting OM.
