I thought it was pretty funny... it does go to show that you can't trust a
resource that's updatable by the public (although on subjects that I'm
intimately familiar with, I've found Wikipedia to be accurate).

John, I think Frank was being nearly as facetious as I was, though I can't
be sure I don't speak for Frank.

First of all, my name's not Francis, but frank (capital F is
optional). It's right there in my birth certificate. Named after my
grandfather, Francois Telesphore Theriault, whose nickname was Frank.
But, my name's frank.
Second of all, it's not deliberate. It just happens. It's the
Photography Gods that do it, not me.
Third of all, since I don't know what art is, I dispute that it's for
"artistic effect". It just ~is~. Sort of an existential thing, I
guess.
I am, however, either humbled by this, or humiliated. I haven't
decided which yet.
<LOL>
cheers,
frank
