You don't look a day over 800. I would never have taken you for a participant at William the Conqueror's defeat of the Saxophones.-- jurist, Feb 26 2003 trouble is I only had a Kodak brownie at the time :)-- po, Feb 26 2003 This is a good idea. Nice and simple and quite interesting. In fact, I think that you should go ahead and bake it, lardus.-- DrBob, Feb 26 2003 I'd like to take a look at any photos from the Grassy Knowl, Dallas, Texas November 22, 1963.-- FarmerJohn, Feb 26 2003 Edinburgh, Hogmanay, 2002/2003

I'm interested in having discussion (via an email list I could set up) with anyone interested in talking about this idea. You don't have to be technically minded to join in.
If you're interested in joining the discussion, I've set up a yahoo group for an email list.
