We've done this discussion before so......

I agree BD and refuse to this day to pick up any of her tomes at Barnes 
and Noble

I suggest that we use this discussion to encourage those unfamiliar 
with George Rodgers to get familiar with him - under appreciated Magnum 
Photog.   I for one will celebrate her death by reading the new book on 
Lartigue by I think Phaidon Publishers.
