Is there a story there? > Well, sort-of, but not like you might think. I heard about Tich? from a friend who was also a photographer and travelled from Prague to Kyjov to try to interview him. I found him very easily - it seemed that everyone in the village knew about him and where he lived. He showed me around Kyjov for most of a day. I bought him lunch and an ice cream, and singularly failed to get him to make a _single_ comment about photography, photographs or anything relevant to visual observation. He also refused to let me photograph him. He did, however, have a lot to say about ice cream and the relative merits of different kinds. As I left he thanked me, very graciously, for coming. Marty
