First, I was not suggesting that their employers should pay for the equipment. Second, I suggest that some of you that are criticizing me for wanting a little more silence during press conferences should do a little self reflecting. Would you want to hear the clatter of shutters at a golf event? What about a wedding? How about at Bob Dole's memorial service? Personally, I didn't hear any shutters during Bob Dole's ceremony so I can only conclude that the photographers were either told not to use mechanical shutters or they had enough disapline to know that it would be inappropriate. I live very near the Nixon Presidential Library and have been fortunate to have had the oppotunity to hear many great speakers including Ollie North and John Dean. I found it very disruppting to have a photographer firing off a Nikon or Canon with mechanical shutter at 15 frames a second in my ear. I came to listen to the speaker, not Nikon or Canon. Now, I can hear some of you say, "Well, just move to a quieter place if the noise is too loud." These events are so popular that once you have acquired a seat, you're better off not standing up for fear you may loose it.

Good afternoon, Rongnongno. Yes one girl who appears too young was massacred in PP, by me. I've already admitted it and have taken steps to remedy my unfortune misjudgment. And she is not too young, she is quite old enough to make her own decisions in all affairs of her life, and may I say much more mature in her youth than some of the wise old guys I've witnessed on this forum.

It seems to me that you have something of a chip on your shoulder, or maybe a grudge with the whole idea of nude photography?? Surely you must be able to find something nice to say? May I suggest not tuning in to this particular station if it so bothers you to induce a rant. Just like watching tv.
