As always, I recommend ECG highly. And would, even if I didn't write for it.
Andy doesn't make any money off this folks, he just likes doing it. So help a brother out.

Actually, Kenn, it's one of the conditions of my work-release program.

There are some pretty good photographers in ECG too.
I'm accepting contributions so I can buy this lens:

Well, actually I want to compensate for the low levels of light at RFK Stadium during night games. I don't actually need to compensate for anything else.

You really don't want to know what Scott has on order.

Amen to that. I wonder if anyone uses a 1.8f lens. As long as someone else is buying.
And Mike, I gotta let you know, RFK has good light compared to most other places I've shot at night.

Subscriber copies are now safely in the hands of the US Postal Service. Most of them should arrive on Monday or Tuesday.
Customer service can be handled via email or my own private forum:

How about:

You know, an homage to falcon6's second-favorite sports radio host.

The poor folks at Elaine Coyne Galleries are really gonna be confused. You're a bad man, Dustin Christman.

They've got nothing to worry about unless they actually have an e-mail ID "thisfanzinestinks." Otherwise, their mail server will cheerfully bounce it back to whatever rube actually thought that e-mail address was real.

A fair number of small domain hosts actually have a catch-all box that captures all mail being sent to unknown mailboxes on the domain. Sort of an email dead letter office kinda thing.

Got mine yesterday.
What does Dan Loney do for a living? That guy would give Tolstoy a run for his money.
He's good though.
Who thinks of this off the wall Nigerian General stuff and Ask Dr Psuedo-Science? Very wacky.

A lot better than that Chris Murphy guy. I wish I could remember what gutter I found him in. :p

Mine came too. Even my wife flipped through it.
Funny you mention the Nigerian scam e-mail. My wife has never received one of those (she doesn't use her e-mail much) and I was just explaining it the other day since we get a lot at work.
Viola! ECG to the rescue to show her what I mean.
Thanks ECG!
She liked Dr. Pseudoscience too.
