I've concluded that it's generally better to mix photography with one's
politics than to mix politics with one's photography.

Derby, there are many places where politics and political humor can be
discussed among those who wish to do so.
I have participated in other internet groups that once were lively and
dynamic, and provided a valuable exchange of information and ideas,
but have been torn apart by the injection of "off-topic" political
diatribes and arguments. Those fora still exist, but the levels of
participation and enthusiasm are but a fraction of what they once
were.
I have no desire to be a censor. Please note that I did not object to
the posts, but only requested that any posts that deviate into
political commentary be clearly marked as "OT:". I thought that a
reasonable enough request. Your mileage may vary.

Dan, I have to make a comment. Bob, Ann and Jeffrey's posts were pretty
amusing. It is what keeps a list enlivening to read. From a neutral Aussie
point of view, I immediately saw James Carville as a somewhat dangerous and
bulbous mushroom to be approached with caution. Did not see any political
propaganda in the least. Yes, I do follow American politics closely, and I
do know who James Carville is. I was just waiting for the Mary Matalin joke.
Lighten up, dude. And take more interesting photos, ok?

If you guys want to hijack this list for propagation of your political

Carville teaches at my alma mater, and I assume that he lives near the
park.

Down here this has been the wettest summer in recent memory, though
most of the US has been drought-prone. It hasn't stopped raining all
day today. This has led to a population explosion of mushrooms
(actually, poisonous toadstools, I think) around the city. I've run
into some "fairy rings" of them at Audubon Park, but didn't have my
camera(!).
Last week was even more annoying. James Carville jogged past me in
the
park, and me without a camera.
is he some kind of poisonous toadstool?
B
quite the opposite :-)
