As some of you have already heard, I won $1,000,000 in Wednesday night's Powerball drawing. Should I ditch my Canon gear and become an official Noinker?

Nah. Join Julian in Club Leica. But wait until they actually give you the check before you order. I heard that the PowerBall jackpot fell victim to a roving decimal point and the reported value was about 14 orders of magnitude higher than the real jackpot value.

Hadn't thought about Leica. Can't trust Julian though. I bought the ticket from him.

US, after taxes, you should clear what? $50? Buy a cleaning kit and refurbish your good old Canon! Based upon some of the other comments: Tape the ticket to your flash to use as a deflector.
