Thanks for that link, Rob.

I will now have to get Sally's memoir.

Me too, once the folks in the ivory towers get over the card glitch they caused me. Tried to use it two weeks ago and it was refused, so I wrote to them at once asking why - no reply. I am certainly not going to get into long distance telephone talk with them! That would cost me money on top of annoyance!

Telecaster recommended her book some time ago; where is he? I hope he didn't shrug and decide to leave.

Thanks Rob. I just ordered the book too. She's one of a kind.

The Mann book arrived yesterday, Rob, and I've read the first two chapters. She's as fine a writer as a photographer. Great stuff!
