- One can only hope. I reread one of his reviews again this morning, and
- it made me sick at heart for the poor guy who sent in a reasonably
- nice photograph. Picker can really be a turd.
-
- Now let's hope they dump A. D. Coleman, who is a self-important
- egocentric pompous arrogant snob who takes himself *much* too
- seriously!
-
- Actually, my solution is to dump Camera and Darkroom, as soon as the
- subscription runs out. Darkroom & Creative Camera Techniques is much
- better all the way around, I think.
