However, I am curious about what you mean in the last sentence. If you mean you would feel afraid of getting too physically close to the people in some of the photographs, I would say that feeling is not misplaced. That's one reason the other OKCLUG member - Ken Carney - and I went together...so we could watch each other's back. Even though it is a lot cleaner than it used to be - and there are a lot more police officers around - nighttime at the fair can still be an unfortunately disconcerting experience. If I showed that in the photographs, I accomplished part of what I set out to do. --Bob
