Bob,
NOOOOO!!!!!!!
You are one of the
"oldtimers" and you have always been part of the list. I cannot imagine you
leaving.
I have been out of town and
haven't read any of the political thread, so I must admit I don't know what is
going on; but PLEASE CONSIDER STAYING.

After 20 years association with this list, I find that it has deviated far
from its intended purpose and I am no longer compatable with most of its
members. I realize that political discussion has NO place on this list.
I didn't start the political discussion, I simply responded to it.
That was a mistake. I was wrong to do so and I apologize for it. As a
former "listminder" I should have known better.
However, I was not
prepared for what followed in the form of intense, vitriolic attacks on my
character. I was appalled at this. There have been times in the last 20
years when I have strongly disagreed with some member of the list but I
have never posted anything nearly as nasty as some of the posts directed to
me.
I am too old and much disinclined not to put up with this kind of
behavior. I just want to be left alone to make art.
I no longer
wish to be associated with some of the people on this list so I am removing
the alt-photo-process list from my list of contacts so that it will only
appear in my junk mail and eventually be automatically deleted. The
list will hear from me no longer. I suspect that will make some members
very happy. I'm glad if that is so for they sound to me like they could
use a little happyness, as they don't appear to be very happy people.
So, goodby to my old friends on the list. You know who you are and how
to contact me if you wish.
Lastly I wish all members of the list
well. Remember, you cannot be too thin, too rich or make too many prints.
Fini and -30-
