I was touched and truly honored, but then you brought Rita into it. :-(

My, god, man, get a little closer to the horse; it's not going to bite,
gently. :-)

Have you been happy with the AF across the range of the 28-135 or are these
manually focused and then IR adjusted?

But then I'd have to get out of the car.

Well, laziness is it's own reward. :-)

I just let it auto-focus. Supposedly, my infrared cammy was
calibrated for the 50 f/1.8, but I haven't noticed too many probs with
the other lenses. Perhaps a tad softer.

I had mine done for the 50,1.8 too. I've had good luck with the 20,2.8 and
the 50,1.4 (well shaded as it has a very bad hot spot), mixed results with
the Sigma 15,2.8 and the Canon 28-135, but anything longer has just been
awful for AF and guestimating focus is hit and miss even with digital.
:-( I don't even want to talk about the experiences with the 100,2.8 macro

Has Aussie Mark Thomas left and given you the smileys, Jim?
