     Tom! The Congo site is truly grand - and I think Scott cleared up the browser porblem on Robin's end... I have no idea what he's going on about but I think you all should be exceedingly pleased with the outcome.... I would love to be able to d
     something like it with the images I'm working on on a project I'm working on in my spare time - about 2400 glass plate egatives taken by a Marshallese man between 1880 and 1930 - the emulsion is starting to come off the glass so I'm on a o e-person mission (with more and more support all the time) to do hi-res scans of the images... it's the first visual rep esentation of this culture and it's worth - I believe - saving the images for this culture.... anyway - sorry if my co ments to Robin were infammatory at all - but I think she's nuts... Sue
    (we have some video of the photographer's remaining son, now 86, describing the images and identifying people and things
    - in both English and Marshallese...)
