There is some hand-wringing here at RFF at times about whether a guy with 30 cameras is a fondler and not a serious photographer. I'm watching the Speed channel on TV right now and learning about Jay Leno's car and motorcycle collection. He employs people to restore and maintain his fleet of antique, classic, and exotic cars (with documentation, design, assembly, photographic, and historical documents). Thirty cameras, heck, 300 cameras is NOTHING!
 
Jay Leno creeps me out ... no one likes him much down here in Austria!
 
He creeps a lot of us in the US too. ^

As to "dying with the most toys wins", why not?

Whilst I admire him for his impeccable automotive tastes, the way he shafted Coco leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.
 
Existential camera angst (anxiety) is best treated with Kierkegaard, and old Leica and coffee ;)

I think it's fair to say he's no Johnny Carson.

He appears to be a serious fondler, though. :D
