National Geographic, the magazine aside, must have made a bundle of money off her - book covers, video covers, postcards, posters, advertising etc. All of which would normally need a release. I winder how much of this they are going to channel back to her now, after the hard life she has led. tim a - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
