I walk in corridor to see daughter wielding a spray container of Glass Plus ("streak-free shine" and "use on many household surfaces") beginning to squeeze forth from this container a spray of its contents onto the surface of an unglazed Ciba print, one of only six of my own images that hang in my home. I am unable to prevent the thorough soaking of this p-hotograph though I am able to save the others. My shriek attracts the attention of mother who arrives to find me gripping her daugher's hand, still clutching said spray bottle whilst liquid streams down my unglazed photograph. I explain that this was not a household surface upon which I wished her daughter to apply any more of this spray. Legal question: am I liable for anything? Other than thoughts of homicide. Looked at against the light, the photo has surface damage. Nothing compared to my cardiac muscle. :-( Seth LaK 9
