Shit happens. I've never been attacked, but then again I tend not to film road accidents until well after they have happened, when police and CSI are on scene and the area is closed to the public. This is because I am sent there by the newsdesk after they have found out about them. These incidents are always fatal and unpleasant. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
