Ed I think you misread my reply too I am not complaining about my pay and hours, I do this because I enjoy what i do and being no money for museums we do this work for little to no credit. "My point, which you seemed to have missed, is that I am suggesting that museums take a hard look at this practice and find another way to store and preserve this material" With you being in the Military you would think you would know that military museums are at the whim of the local base commanders, some support most dont. But it takes many voices to extend a voice to Ottawa to get the point that over head cover is needed,are you willing to send a voice?
As for Going after authors and publishers, I really dont know where your coming from, What i said was "we do it to keep people like you and the others in pictures so books can be wrote 50 years later and have something beside black and white photos scamed out of public archives." You cant go back are retake photos 50 years later of a b/w photo, so with that said you can still go out and take a few photos of rusty vechs.
Lets not drag evil authors and publishers into this, That was not even close to what was being said.
