Thanks for introducing yourself Scott.... I looked at your photos and I think you have
done some very nice work....If the LUG balks at direct monetary support, I trust you will
find a way to fund yourself,  and possibly you will get some leads from members of this
group. Personally I 'm  a doc....and I  just  play !  with my camera.....so ....possibly
working at something else,  may help  fund your passion.....
I will drop you a note off-list,  some time.   Sincerely wishing you the best,  I have
"been there".... literally.... (I  was a denizen of  UC Berkeley,   1967-1969.....),
so,...... from the sixties,  but not stuck in the sixties....    ;-)    Steve
