No, don't fear, fear not, I've not joined the digital masses (yet).
However, I have finally convinced the Michigan Department of Agriculture
to
purchase a Nikon D70, to be used by yours truly, as well as a few other
select persons in the course of their work. I was the one who put the
list
of camera possiblities together. I requested the Nikon (positioned
carefully in the middle of the list) because I can use it with my larger
personal system (which I've been using almost exclusively in lieu of
their
crappy sony mavica), thereby facilitating my job. If anyon'es
interested,
I'll let you know what I think of it after I get it--it hasn't been
ordered
yet, and Finance and Budget have a way of tossing the proverbial monkey
wrench into the gears when they want to, but it's been tentatively
approved
by the director, and I'm reasonably sure I'll have it in my hot little
hands
before too long.

Hmmm, what's the email for the ethics watchdog ...

Have fun.

Cheers,
Alan.


No, no, no. I'm really getting it for work. Of course, now that it's
pretty much on its way, thoughts start to cross my mind... Painting with
light, for instance!
