Hi Steve...Interesting question...Here's the way I received the moral
dilemma:




Subject: Moral Test Question


  .
  This test only has one question, but it's a very important one. Please
don't answer it without giving it some serious thought. By giving an honest
answer you will be able to test where you stand morally.

The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation, where you
will have to make a decision one way or the other. Remember that your answer
needs to be honest, yet spontaneous.

Please scroll down slowly and consider each line - this is important for the
test to work accurately.

You're in Florida... in Miami, to be exact.  There is great chaos going on
around you, caused by a hurricane and severe floods. There  are huge masses
of water all over you. You are a CNN photographer and you are in the middle
of this great disaster. The situation is nearly hopeless.

You're trying to shoot very impressive photos. There are houses and people
floating around you disappearing into the water. Nature is showing all of
its destructive power and is ripping everything away with it.

Suddenly you see a woman in the water, she is fighting for her life, trying
not to be taken away by the masses of water and mud. You move closer.

Somehow she looks familiar. Suddenly you know who it is - it's Hillary
Clinton!

At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take her
away forever. You have two options. You can save her or you can take the
best photo of your life.

So you can save the life of Hillary Clinton, or you can shoot a Pulitzer
prize winning photo, a unique photo displaying the death of one of the
world's most powerful women.

And here's the question (please give an honest answer):

Would you select color film, or rather go with the simplicity of classic
black and white?
