Great marketing technique. Gonna have to explain to me how it works. From: sanders@xxxxxxxxx To: rollei_list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [rollei_list] Re: My book is up. Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2009 10:31:15 -0700 First, thank you all who expressed congratulations for the book. This has been a labor of many years, albeit a pleasant one. Most of you are familiar with the photographs. I've written short essays about the nature of portraiture to go with them. It is my hope that the sum of the book surpasses the individual portraits I've shot for the series over the years. This will likely be my last post to this group, but I feel compelled to respond to Marc's chastisement about the need to obey the rules. Marc said: >Well, to be blunt, it is my list, and I have very few rules. >One of these rules is that FS/WTB ads be listed on Fridays, >your time, only. [snip] Sure, I might have been rude. I suspect >the officers I chewed out when I was in the Army thought I was >rude, too. But rules exist for a reason. Indeed they do, Marc. And I am glad to be held to such an exacting standard, over such an inconsequential infraction, though you err by assuming a commercial purpose in my post. Since we are on the subject of obedience to rules: Perhaps you can explain to the list why you chose to violate Rules 1.5 (Client Fees), 1.15 (Safekeeping of Client Property), 8.1 (Bar Admission and Disciplinary Matters), and 8.4 (Attorney Misconduct), of the Virginia State Bar Rules of Professional Conduct, to the tremendous and lasting suffering of a fellow list member? http://www.vsb.org/docs/Small_2-29-08.pdf Hey, I'm all for obeying the rules. But I don't appreciate being lectured about breaking rules by a former lawyer who lost his license for violating his fiduciary duties to his client and the most basic rules of professional conduct. I will of course refrain from further posts to "your" list.
