It's the publishers who need one of these. The other day we had a nutcase try to jump from the public gallery into the debating chamber in Parliament. Photographs of the public gallery are expressly forbidden, to ensure that anyone who does cause a fuss (protests etc) will not get media attention, and the point of this rule is to discourage them. Well, one of our country's biggest newspapers got a photo of this guy being restrained and published it. And now they're whining like spoiled little children after being punished. The Speaker of the House is one person you don't screw with. Anyone who can keep a room full of politicians under control is not going to take any crap from an editor. http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10757763 Cheers, Dave -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
