No, that would be Michael Newdow, the atheist from the Sacramento area who is offended at the Pledge of Allegiance because of the phrase "under God" and is suing to get it removed from the area's schools.

Hmm - we're in danger of moving off-topic in the OT section :P.

While I really do enjoy theological debate I think we need to ensure that we don't start getting into a 'my god is better than your god (or lack of god)' slanging match.

So I take it you are polytheistic?

I can name 11 Gods, but they all play for Liverpool FC, and that would probably go over most non-football fans heads .

That's amusing... can he use any of that stuff?

[Mr. Pickles]

Sounds like a smuck that has too much money. Got to have (2) of some stuff? How many people have (2) 50mm lenses? Moron probably puts one on each of his D70s so he has an identical backup, huh? How many bets I get for the guy using his stuff while he washing windows, to peep on people?

[Sidebyte]

Perhaps!, but I bet his wrist is limp.......maybe from carrying too much equipment in San Fran.?

Hey, I resemble that remark . I've currently got 4 50mm lenses - all with different qualities.

[Mr. Pickles]

You really have (4) 50mm lenses, or are all yours different brands or apertures?

[Paul Shields]

All Olympus:

OM 50mm /f.3.5 Macro
OM 50mm f/1.8
OM 50mm f/1.4
Zuiko Digital 50mm f/2.0

I love them all!

[Shelbell82]

Do you find much difference in the f/1:8 and the f/1:4?

[Mr. Pickles]

But all (4) of yours are actually different. The slime ball has (2) of the same ones.

Yes. The f/1.4 is softer wide open. I generally prefer the f/1.8 unless it's indoors. I prefer the Zuiko Digital f/2.0 over all of them for convenience and sharpness.
