If they give me too much grief, I'll just look at their gear and ask

Thanks for the advice, Paul! I doubt there'll be quite that many
photographers at this event. It's a relatively small town that just
happens to be the hub of commerce and population center for this part of
the state -- and is pretty crucial to getting elected here.
