Re: Techies -vs- Artists

Sorry Peter, but you have conveniently taken my comments completely out of
context. If that was the point you were attempting to make, it was cloaked
within a bunch of disparaging potshots at, as you so charmingly refer to
them once again here, "art majors". If you choose to include that sort of
bluster, you can't fault me or anyone else for calling you on it.

Flame on if you'd like. I'll be getting back to photography now, thanks.
