I was afraid of being "annoying picture-taking guy"
Not a problem. I'm very much in favor of "better safe than sorry" on this in general. Also not big fan of having my picture taken most of the time anyway, so less blinding by camera flashes=good in my book. (Which is funny because I'll get disappointed when there is no photographic evidence of my existance, but will often not like the acquiring of or my appearance in said evidence when it does exist.)

Well, understood, but you have to remember there is a larger, wider audience to be served here. Those of us at home are keen to see pictures of our fellow Buffistas in action and be jealous we weren't there amongst the foamy.
Can someone double-check my annotations on [link] and [link] please?
Hey JohnSweden! Check out the Four Star Review we got in Toronto's The Eye. Is that like the local alternative weekly?
That "notes" feature on Flickr is way cool!

Uh-huh.
Also, you can tell by looking at glowstick pictures that Tom Scola's digital camera has superior low-light performance than mine.
Tom, it says that the exposure time on that glowstick photo is "10/80." What does that mean? 1/8th of a second?

Almost too good - the picture of you with the glowsticks didnt' work at all - looked just like daylight.
Also, I wasn't meaning to complain about anyone but me in regard to pictures - I always mean to take pictures, and to ask people to, but I never ever remember to do so. (And since I took the restaurant pictures as I scampered my way out the door, I think we all know who's at fault here. C and I had just eaten a really big meal, though, and were way too stuffed even to watch other people eat...)
Uhm... uh...
I just put the camera on its nighttime setting, and turned off the flash.
The fact thatI had the camera resting on the table, immobile, when I took the picture probably has a lot to do with why it looks better.
