Look closer, you will see your wife. I actually had special instructions from the people in power to avoid nudity.

thanks for the edit! your are welcome. I will also add that I have been using photography directly or indirectly as an art director for quite a few years... I used to be a Nikon/Blad person, but for a while now Digital tipped the scales clearly towards Canon. The XT (or 350 in Europe) is awesome for in air stuff, light, good resolution and you won't loose your pants if you end up doing a head plant on landing. People with 1D MarkII on their helmets make me nervous. That said there is no overall best, only a best for what you need it for.

Canon has been leading the pack ever since the intro of digital photography. Today, depending on your budget... Canon Digital Elph : aprox $350 Canon Rebel XT : aprox $800 Canon 5D : aprox $3500 Canon 1DsMKII : aprox $7200

"It all began in 2737 BC in China. According to legend, whilst the emperor Shen Nung was boiling water to slake his thirst in the shade of a tree, a light breeze rustled the branches and caused a few leaves to fall. They mixed with the water and gave it a delicate colour and perfume. The emperor tasted it and found it to be delicious. The tree was a wild tea plant: tea was born. In India, another legend tells of how Prince Dharma was touched by Divine grace and went out to preach the teachings of Buddha in China. To make himself worthy of such a mission, he vowed never to sleep during the nine years of his journey. Towards the end of the third year, however, he was overcome by drowsiness and was about to fall asleep when by chance he plucked a few leaves from a wild tea plant and began to chew them. The stimulating qualities of tea immediately had their effect; Dharma felt much more alert and thereafter attributed the strength he found to stay awake during the six remaining years of his apostolic mission to these leaves. In Japan the story goes a little differently: after three years Bodhi Dharma, exhausted, ended up falling asleep while he prayed. On awaking, infuriated by his weakness and devastated by his sin, he cut off his eyelids and threw them to the ground. Some years later, on passing the same spot, he saw that they had given birth to a bush that he had never seen before. He tried the leaves and discovered that they had the property of keeping a person awake. He told the people around him about his discovery and tea began to be cultivated in all those places through which he travelled. Legends aside, it seems that the bush was originally from China, probably from the region around the border between north Vietnam and Yunnan province, and that the drinking of this beverage was first developed by the Chinese." I like it White, Mate and real Chai..

So the Swoop Pond, say the 30th at 7PM it is? Nah too many trees by the pond area.. You guys might get your peepees stuck in the thorns, have your mini get together in the DC3 or on the beacon, just pick a night where nothing else is happening there... Remster, tell us about Wyoming... anything fun? any cowboys skiing in Stetson hats?

My sister, lost parts of her hips and both her femurs due to osteonecrosis at the age of 36... this was triggered by cortisone. She is now fine, and running around with the help of some very high tech alloy replacement bone parts...
