That's all?  Shucks, Ted, I had thought you were the guy who taught the
Zone System to Daguerre.  Some legends just get popped too quickly, and we
do feel cheated.

Tell us the truth, now:  weren't you the guy who did the wood-cuts at the
Battle of New Orleans?  Or was that the wood-cuts of the burning at the
stake of the Maid of Orleans?  I am easily confused, and often!
