Gee, I wonder if he is working for free. Think he is going to make any
money off the UP book? Even a little?

I know, I know you have heard it all before, but I can NOT pay my bills
working for free books. Printers get paid, the dudes that supply the paper
get paid, the darn delivery man gets paid, why is it that folks think that
photographers do not need to be paid for their work, amatuer or not?!
Because we do it out of love? Or just for fun? Or a hobby? Film still costs
money. And no matter how much I love chasing trains, if someone is going to
turn a profit, benefitting from my work, then I should share in those $$.

Ok, I'm through ranting now. :-)
