I feel bad for Ralph Gibson- looks and sounds cheesy.  I'm not a fan 
of his stuff - much of which could have been done with a Holga.

BTW sold off my last Leica camera and have yet to be swallowed up by 
the earth - perhaps because I still own a 90/2.8 - is this enough to 
keep me on the list?  YES
