That's a wonderful story. I once waited two hours in the House Ways and
Means committee hearing room for Dick Gephardt to show up, and when he did
he just went to the podium to explain to all the nice people who had hired
me why he couldn't talk to them that day. My F4 picked that moment to run
out of juice, and the other photographers al laughed at me as I frantically
changed all those damned batteries trying to get a few shots of Gephardt
before he left. 

I never charged the client.

But I took action. Bought a Leica. <g>
