[HUG] Re: The Public Nuisance

Dear Uncle Dick,

That is wonderfull news to hear at the end of this year.

I am sure the rental department of your new employer will flourish under your 
new command.
At least turnover in Portra film will be rising as every H3D rental kit will be 
supplied with a large box of Kodak film.
Kodak is about to announce a new Portra film that is suitable for digital 
imaging.
I am sure you will be among the first to order this new Portra.

Richard

  Dear Friends,

   

               Those of you who have front doors with deadbolt locks may want 
to slip away from the computer for a few minutes and make sure they are 
secured. I have an announcement.

   

               As of yesterday I have retired from my primary food-getting 
profession and am free to undertake my secondary ones – photography and cadging 
meals. I have invested in a GPS system and am currently in the process of 
planning an extended trip to all of your houses where I shall stay for 
indefinite periods and give advice. No need to thank me.

   

              Before I commence this life-threatening road trip I will need to 
spend a decade in the local photographic trade – I start on the 7th of January 
in the retail side. I hope in time to advance to a position where I can dictate 
the policies of major manufacturers. I have already sounded out Agfa and Forte 
and they were good enough to offer me the position of CEO. I may hold out for 
something more exalted, with a gold uniform and personal assistants.

   

              I have even started to study the digital world on the web and 
through our local library. As I have 5 Hasselblad bodies and 6 backs I will not 
buy a new Crockoflex D anytime soon, nor will I spring for the CFV. But the 
firm I hope to work for has an H3D in its rental department so I may be able to 
play with that. As soon as I can get it to output onto Kodak Portra rather than 
a screen I’ll be set.

   

               Uncle Dick
