Paige always says things better than I can.
Best of luck Brian. And don't just lurk; continue to contribute!
As for your photographic endeavors: I'm always edified when I learn
that no map librarian lives simply for the job; that there is 2 or 3
people's worth of interesting things going on in each of your lives.
