Well, that is not good news, but hopefully, common sense will strike.  It won't 
be as great a hit for me, other than disasppointment,  because I don't sell my 
stuff, but it has been a good ride, and  I did meet some nice folks. Hopefully, 
it will continue.  C.

Some interesting stuff.  Seems that Grand-Am has found "a guy" selling photos 
of the GA race via the internet.  Apparently they don't like people making any 
money from the series unless they get their cut, like ALMS. 

So.  John said, "They're going to make a decision about what to do.  They may 
only allow certified media outlet photographers have credentials."  I don't 
know who "they" are.  Most likely MMP upper management.  He told me that if 
things change, he'll send out an email to the "regulars" and let us know of any 
change.  Until any change occurs, the same arrangement that's always been in 
place will continue. 

I'm very tempted to say fuck this whole business and only concentrate on LSR 
stuff.  I'm also tempted to put a new "Welcome" page on my web sites that says, 
"I quit."  The way things have gone the last few days, maybe that's the thing 
to do.
