Breaking news about the revolutionary Leica MT

 

From the article:

When we began hearing rumors about a Leica project code-named Chronos in late September last year, we assigned a small team of reporters to dig deeper.

Unfortunately, the idea didn't come to me until about 6 AM this morning, and I had other pressing business to attend to before I could turn my attention to the prank. BTW, it's 17:22 in my time zone.

The prank might be even more funny if there was an article to go with the picture. There appears to be a link in the first post, but it's not a valid URL.

At least in Europe, the joke has to be played before midday (12 PM), otherwise you're the fool isn't that the same in the US?

No, I don't think we have that rule here. Or I've forgotten; it's been a long time since I was in primary school. Anyone else in N. America want to chime in on this?

Ahh.....no.

If you catch one person the entire day you're successful.
