You've got it, Ted!  I appreciate the suggestions and I'll think 
twice before I sign up for anything like this again.  Did you also 
read this?  This is the worst:
When the project director tried to get permission for me to 
photograph at the hospital where the baby will be born, the publicity 
director of the hospital said she would have to be present any time I 
was there taking photographs.  She will be out of town the week the 
baby is due to be born.  Her solution?  "Well, I guess if the family 
is there, you could hand your camera to them and let them take the 
photos"  AAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!!

Even though I like seeing my photos hanging in galleries, I think I'm 
going to give up on the artsy fartsy crowd from now on.  :-(
