      The above picture was
              taken in 1993 and used on one of my first web pages
              created while I was a Member of Scientific Staff at
              Nortel's R&D subsidiary Bell Northern Research (BNR)
              when we stood up our first web server. BNR had a "no
              cameras on-site" policy but I wanted to set up a
              "directory" web site that had employee's contact and SME
              information as well as a picture. I went to the security
              desk and asked how I could get camera for such and they
              said "well here's one" which was one of those Polaroid
              Land cameras that pops out a picture you can watch
              develop. They took a picture of me and handed to me. I
              took it to a graphics artist in our department and asked
              if she could "crop it" (get rid of outer border). She said
              "I can make flames blow out yer ears", and proceeded to
              scan/edit and do so. That picture is her handiwork, I use
              it often (wish I could remember her name).
