Hi Doug,

I think its really important not to make personal attacks on people so my
"tongue in cheek" humour is never personal, plus I really do not mind some
humurous backlash, minus the malice.

I have found that my interest in photography has led me into some amazing,
crazy, new and exciting places, places I would not have ventured had it not
been for this interest - I see LUG as an extension of this adventure and
whilst it is not my primary motive, I hope as I have in the past, to make
some lasting long term friendships.

Of, me - at the age where my own story bores me to tears, hence my interest
in everyone elses - I feel that listening and observancy are crucial to
photography and by what I have read so far on LUG some more light hearted
humour could go a long way - ie. we are a long time dead.

Thanks for the interest,

Take Care

Karina
