There was an interesting article in yesterday's NY Times about the discovery of 4,300 negatives taken by Robert Capa, Gerda Taro and David Seymour during the time of the Spanish Civil War.

Swine Flu

Hello all,
I AM SUPER HUMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just realized that what I thought was a regular case of the flu, was actually SWINE FLU!!!!!!!!! I read online what the symptoms were and I had everything they listed... fatigue, body aches, fever, cold chills... definitely swine flu. Luckily I survived, but I feel like I've changed a little bit. I've included a photo of myself (post Swine Flu) for you guys to look at and see if you can tell if something is different.
