Well, yea. It wasn't my money paying for it, and I did turn down several of the hostess's blandishments and inducements of oriental luxury, all in the name of keeping myself moral. When I use my own money I check myself in as livestock, and travel in a wooden crate in the hold. -- Cheers, Bob

I doubt the funds run to paying for your airfare, but they might consider covering your expenses over here. It might be interesting to hear about photojouralism from the BBC-TV point of view. I will mention the idea to Don tomorrow. graywolf http://www.graywolfphoto.com Idiot Proof == Expert
