Thanks for the link, Steve.  Rather appropriate on the day we learned of the
passing of Phil Jones Griffiths.
I'm still old fashioned (or delusional) enough to believe that photos can
indeed change minds.  For those interested in the descendants in form of the
Griffith's legacy, the viiphoto.com website is worth a look.  I've never
known a group of people more devoted to their occupations and art form.

Getting ready to order the book, Steve.  I will of course expect you to sign
it ; )
