I agree with John and Will, the majority of people in call centres are there because they have little choice with job options, often they've been "forced" into taking the job for fear of losing jobseekrs allowances etc. Probably the case with many cold callers knocking on our doors too.
Yes it does irritate the hell out of me and yes I do occasionally just put the phone down on them but the majority simply get a polite no thank you.
As for scammers, they should bring back the death penatly

I agree, I think concertina bottles are a must for storage, but you could also use glass beads or marbles to increase the volume in rigid containers, keeping the air out is 90% of the battle in preserving chems.The developer goes off mostly due to oxidization so store it in

All this talk has got me wanting to dust my Darkroom gear off

Most of the bird shots in my gallery were shot with the 50-500 (non HSM)
As don says, it needs good light, the max. aperture is supposed to be 6.3 but for some reason has always shown as f6.7 on every body that mine has been on, others have reported the same problem too, (don't know if this is the case with the HSM version)
On good days if you can stop down to f8 or even f11 the lens will really perform well.

I got my K5 for Christmas in early November, I did intend to wait for my birthday the following June but realised I would miss out on all that low light shooting over the coming winter, and of course I could have waited until the price dropped and saved nearly £300 but then I'd have missed out on 18 months of having it.
If you've got the cash and intend buying one then why wait, lifes too short to wait for birthdays, and you could always stick it back in the box and wrap it up

I doubt I would be disciplined enough to go out with just one camera and lens, plus I'd be too afraid of missing a shot.
