A long suffering partner of a noted Amateur Photographer agreed wholeheartedly with the findings of the survey, and just recently was compelled to beat her boring husband to death with one of his own nano-crystal coated lenses. "It was appalling," she said, "even as I was beating him about the head, he still found time to explain that the nano-coating was to deal with the increased back-scatter of light reflecting off the chip, which as everyone knows, has a greater reflective quality than film and can lower contrast. At my trial I pleaded that it wasn't murder but a 'service to mankind' and the judge agreed."

His books are a hoot! And excellent summer reading.

As well as fall, spring and winter. Check out his "Thursday Next" series and, if you're a bibliophile, you'll enjoy it.
