If you're in that sort of mood, how'd ya like to take over the committee?

Btw, anybody heard from D-Mac lately?

Probably.

Not since the "Chloe" retreat/withdrawal statement in
rec.photo.equipment.35mm yesterday.
"Same crap, same people, same childish behaviour...
Bye bye for me. You lot will squabble this group into oblivion soon
enough, you're nearly there now."

Missed that. Didn't make my server I guess. Ah well - no ... well,
nothing.



So I guess he is working on yet another clone with more experience than
anybody else on usenet.

Bigger, Better, Faster , .... Bore.

Actually, I agree with him. Nine out of ten abandoned architecture
subjects down here are foreclosed houses and decaying strip malls.

Tony Cooper - Orlando, Florida

Lots of decay in Florida and Alabama. Mostly teeth.


The big pickup line in Nashville is: "nice tooth."

Decay (consider shots of abandoned, or forgotten architecture,
engineering, infrastructure, etc.)

No fair! The Americans in the northeast have too much of an advantage
here.

Posted with your usual actual knowledge.

Do you live in the North East?

Duh.

Have you seen the re-vitalization? (Some call it "gentrification."

Yes! There are a lot of issues with denigrated inner cities, but that
issue is not limited to the US North East.

Nor did he say that, Peter. He said they have an advantage. It's
easier for a resident of a "rust belt" state to go out and find a
interesting photographic opportunity that it is for me if the mandate
is architectural decay. An abandoned steel mill is a more interesting
subject than the typical abandoned house in this area.

Coming from Rich I took it as a jab, and reacted accordingly.



That doesn't mean that I can't compete in the mandate. I just have to
put more thought, imagination, and searching for sites into it.

I won't complain about whatever mandate is chosen.



I Most abandoned steel mills I am aware of are located in Western
Pennsylvania. Lat time I looked PA is not part of the North East, but
Mid-Atlantic


Rich doesn't like ANY part of the USA. See my post below...

Here is the voting to date

I suggest waiting a few more days... if you haven't voted yet, pls do
(see first post in this thread).

In Alabama it is "Get in the truck, bitch!"

In Georgia and Tennessee they have a law that provides that if a married
couple gets a divorce, after the divorce they are still brother and sister.
