Pairs Martha_Coe 3 Sam's Steamboat: An amusing aspect of Clemens's house, largely unremarked even in its official tours, is its (obviously intentional) resemblance to a steamboat. This picture of the house's upper stories shows a porch that mimics a pilot house and chimneys resembling the gaudy smokestacks of the most opulent Mississippi River steamers. Bob |

The fact is that most people don't caption and the data management sub committee are (I have to admit) a rather motley crew of misfits and miscreants. I'll endeavour to correct your captions at the earliest opportunity. OTOH, maybe a Rul change is in order where captions are neither required, desired or accepted. If the photo doesn't tell the story, let the mystery remain except for explanations on usenet. Pairs Bob_Coe 1 Cookie-Cutter Condos.

It's possible to put the caption in the Windows "comments" field of the file. (I tested it today with a much longer piece of text than any caption I've seen in the SI.) I wonder if it would then be displayed automatically. Probably a bit far-fetched. But if you like, I could send you a picture set up that way, and you could test it. Bob |
