If I, Master Po, came to visit you (on weekend perhaps), would we just limit
ourselves to simply to the subject of photography? I think not. Photography sure, but after some fine wine or excellent beer I'm sure our discussions would drift onto other subjects.
If a group of us meet one day for - - - let's say JT's: Surf and Turf, Or Rolando's; Glamour and Nude workshop, would we only talk about f stops and
white balance or work flows? I truly doubt it.
If Jimmyd and John Paul met in person to finally settle who's the better
photographer once and for all-- would they still not discuss the finer points
of booze, broads and cigarettes after they gathered their teeth and tattered
clothes and bandaged each other up (Or maybe in this case one drives the other
to the emergency room to avoid murder charges! LOL!)
You should not expect a forum to be any different?
To keep a forum like this sedate and super polite would require such heavy
moderation that free expression would be sacrificed. No one would be served.
We sometimes have to tolerate "frictional" relationships in order to serve
the greater good.
Just as you are at the time in life you enjoy being a grandfather, the same
applies to those who come after you in the forum,,, you've been there and done
that, and you can still offer the guidance and wisdom that comes with your years
on this planet......
I hope this helps you---------
Greg.
