Sweet! Only a few months remaining. And to think I was worried about my absence this summer interfering with the camera's path...

Has anyone thought to calculate the number of miles this camera will have traveled by the time it gets home?

This particular camera we are going to calculate how many days it has sat in various peoples closets.

I'm using the amount of worry beads I've gone through to measure the time and distance... :surprised:

I thought you were using chicken entrails?

I am going to ask Sile to pmail each of you his address. I mean you have it anyway from the mail list. Each of you send a nice polite postcard describing why it's important to live up to the group's responsibilities. Then politely inquire as to his health (a Tony Soprano subtlety). Do a bit of begging, then quietly imply the next package will contain chicken (or use your imagination) entrails and you will be putting a benign hex upon his head.

All and all, keep it light. Next we send in the RCMP.

Aah if I had that phone number myself...

Can we have a hands up who wants to go ahead and do a mass postcard mailing to him to see if we can't move this along?
Or does anyone have any other ideas on what we could do other than a assault on a local chicken farm? :rolleyes:

Is it Martin that we're talking about? I forget. Anyway, he might have a very legitimate reason for dropping from view. Seriously, who knows, he may have been run over by a bus. I'm inclined to have one or two people send a postcard. I could be one of them, as he's within 1000km from here, and the mail system within Canada is quite good. Maybe me and 1 other person?

Well, if he's run over by a bus...two cards or twenty ain't gonna make much difference. Might make him laugh during his re-coop-eration (chicken reference).

Earlier, somebody mentioned a LF group he's a part of. Any chance of tracking him down that way?

Edit: That info came to me in a PM. Forwarded to Síle.

This is reediculous.

Sile, please send the address for Martin to everyone on the list. Either send a postcard, or show up with pitchforks, torches, and chants ALA SHREK.

Please also send me a copy of the list so I can get another camera ready to send.

All, if you are not interested in completing this project, please email Sile privately now and we will get you off the list.

Damned pagan chickens, this project is the cornerstone of angst.

So, is camera 7 up next, or will it be 6b? I am in either way.

I'm definitely still interested, although I may have an address change in the next month or so.

Sorry guys I've been away and totally out of the loop lately..

I think it might just be a good idea to get started on Camera 7 and consign unlucky number 6 to the depths of cornerstones the world over..
Boring and tedious as it seems I'll send a PM to everyone again to be certain they're still in and we'll start over. To those of you who've been here before.. you know it's worth it.. To those of you whom this is your first exchange.. trust us it really is worth it.

I'll get pm's to everyone on the list over the weekend and formulate a list next week.. giving everyone a few days to get back to me. And Tim watch out for an email coming to an inbox near you soon..

In times of desperation such as think.. I think it's time to start on the Pagan cow... or should we go straight for the elephant...
