Jeez Roger, I've been one less driver on the road, and you're fussing?

Environmentalism is great for photography; I think of it as ensuring a
source of raw material for our Leica photography. To date, I can't think of
any great works of art with titles such as "Moonrise over 7-11" or "Still
life with Explorer".

No to both questions, but like I said, mine's an uncluttered life, and if
it's short a Boxster or two, it's also short a bill or two :-) I really do
enjoy having the time to fuss over the photography.
