In the above, replace 'at' with @ and 'dot' with a dot.
Don't know why the server did this.

Last December I sent the following message to the list. Well, April is almost at hand, and so I announce the opening of the Bulwer-Lytton/William Robb contest for best photographic clich�
Send your choice to me at:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
I'll keep a total and announce the winner at the end of the month.
The only rule is: one vote apiece. Please send me the full title and photographer's name. Give me your justification, or just vote without justification.
I'm traveling until April 16, so I won't be able to answer e-mails until then.
The winner earns an honored place in the PUG Hall of Fame.
Have fun, and may the best (worst?) clich� win.
Joe

This is the PUG with the theme "Clich�." In my opinion, it is one of Bill's most brilliant ideas.
I suggest that we set up a vote for the best clich� photo that month. (And I'm suggesting it for that month only, unless we want to make it an annual.) I have in mind something like the annual Bulwer-Lytton award. Bulwer-Lytton was a Victorian novelist who wrote "It was a dark and stormy night." So every year the Bulwer-Lytton award goes to the most creative awful opening sentence - a classic clich�. People work hard to produce them, and some are quite witty (www.bulwer-lytton.com). A photography equivalent would be fun.
