Re: the safetyWasn't she very eccentric and controversial, among other things - I seem to recall her posting to this list more than twice and even declaring her own death and many other rantings. I believe she gave a small workshop of some sort at one of the B&S conferences - Dick do you still have the pictures?
Or am I confusing things here - it wouldn't be the first time.

Main problem: None of us will live forever. And my central safety concern these days is the prospect of a dirty bomb going off in my downtown Manhattan neighborhood. The mortal threat of hypo pales by comparison. Arthur
You never know--some Al Qaeda operative may be inventing a hypo bomb even as we speak.
There's a good article in the most recent New Yorker about Julia Margaret Cameron and all the toxic chemicals she worked with, apparently without knowing they were toxic. Her career as a photographer only lasted ten years, because she died. Just think how many more naked cherubs we would have from her opus, if only she had used proper ventilation and safety precautions.
