Thanks, Shawn, for the stats.  I was thinking about asking the question.
You have saved me the trouble and some bandwidth.

To those in a silent majority on the list:
So here are the questions again:
 
1. Which one of the new OM bodies (OM reissues with possibly a few new
features, one under $500, one ca. $700, and an OM-5 under $1500) would you
buy in the next 2-5 years? Just one or two or all three? (You have to ask
your own pocketbook and your buying habit.)

2.Would you like to have an autofocusing OM-x? (Be honest.  You don't need
to be realistic here.)

3. Would you be willing to have a somewhat larger OM body so that several
new features may be accommodated?

4. What is the single most important feature of the OM body that you would
like to see retained? Please narrow your preferences down to the single
feature.  I will not count those votes with two items here.

Before I send off anything, I will present the tally and my list of all the
nice OM-x features presented.  If anyone has his/her version of the opening
statement for this petition, you can send it to me or to the list. 

Your ballot (?) does not need to be sent to the list; I can receive your
e-mail ballot if you have a secret desire to own an autofocus OM-x or other
unusual answers to the questions.  I have created two mailboxes
specifically for this project, one for wish lists and the other for your
votes, so I am ready to receive a huge number.

To those OM bargain-hunting Olympians!  Even if your answer to the question
1 is none, you may vote on the rest of the questions.  If any of our OM
dreams is realized, sooner or later you might get to buy one secondhand.  

DEADLINE: TUESDAY, JANUARY 20, 1998 12:00 PM (NOON) LOCAL TIME
