Too bad insurance rates have gone through the roof the last few years in
Canada. My house insurance now comes with a $500 deductible (keeping the old
$200 deductible would cost me $100/year more!), making small claims pretty
costly. ie: 500 + losing claims free discount = about $625!
I guess I need to stockpile some OM-1s before having my gear stolen... ;-)
