I asked this before but got a lot of friendly banter and jokes. Okay, you use the camera with a moniker of E O S. What does that EOS stand for? I had one reply that looked like it was okay, but can anyone on this board tell me EOS is E....O.....S....?
Please, If you know respond. If you don't know, thats OKAY. Just keep your jokes.

Believe it or not, your question was already answered several times in your previous post even though they might have been sort of tongue-in-cheek. But to get it directly from the horse's mouth, look here:

You are all neat. Thank-You

Bel, for sure, Thank-You

I just wanted to know.

Sometime you have to kick me, but I will get it. I just didn't follow-up.

Again, thank each one on you.

There is also this neat thing called Google (www.google.com (external link)) and you can use it to find lots of info. Sometimes it's good to venture off the boards into other parts of the internet. :)
