Thanks for continuing to think about this possibility Bruce.
Because a number of LUGgers responded positively;
I'd like to continue to develop the concept.

Personally, I would like to see the assignments
dig a bit deeper into current trends.

i.e. Rather than "Document your city/town/village in 5 photos"

I'd suggest:
"Document evidence of economic downturn in your city/town/village"
with a deadline of March 31st. 2009
Try to tell your story
as if this were a feature story for publication
with 12 (or less as needed) best
covering people, places and things.

or
Any other suggestions?

Just trying to move this idea forward with some specifics.
Don't know if Brian is agreeable to this schedule
re: setting up a place to show work, etc.

Regards,
George Lottermoser
