Inspired by some thread earlier today, no less than with the couple of others earlier this month, I came up with a question:
Can we introduce an official, No Whining Day, here in POTN?

Admit it or not, all of us here are privileged to own some of the finest cameras Man has ever made!
They were built by the best engineers and technicians, human knowledge ever produced.
They were constructed upon the Rules that have existed since the beginning of Time, proven upon Experience that was justified since even our grandfathers cannot remember, enriched upon the Ideas that none of us has ever dreamed of just a couple a years ago..

Let’s give those guys a credit!

Seriously, let’s spend ONE day - 1 out of 364, 0.0027472, 0.27% - every year, NOT COMPLAINING about their work?
Let’s spend a day praising their effort, talking ONLY about the good things that they gave us for our money.

Can we do it?
Can we, here in POTN, be the first - not just to proclaim, but to really share the experience of enjoyment and satisfaction with what we DO have?

This does put me in a tough spot. I want to sign on, but if I sign on, I'm afraid that I too could be labled a whiner. And I am quite sure that those who do the most whining wouldn't see themselves as such -- doh! That's probably another whine, isn't it? :oops::lol:;)
