I had a 72mm Hoya Circular Polarizer hit the boat deck in Alaska. It landed
on edge, split in two and I was chasing the two halves which rolling around
the deck.

Yep, been there, done that! I've lost two or three Hoya filters that way,
and a couple of times it's been because the retaining ring has unscrewed
through friction with my clothing (I always carry the camera with the lens
pointing into my body - it feels better balanced that way), and the first
I've known is hearing the tinkle of expensive optical grade glass smashing
on the pavement.

Has this ever happened to you? Sportin' a new Hoya Super HMC Pro UV
filter. Walk around town doin' stuff, hoping for some good street shots,
but none eventuate. Come home, and find the lens sans filter.
Screw those filters on tight, kids.
