Nor did anybody on this list say he did or should take credit for it, what I
said was he was an early pioneer of it, in as much as Edward Weston and some
others were. I don't see why that's so difficult for some to accept - (do we
need to get into the semantics of the word "pioneer"?) - probably has
something to do with the perception that Adams and Weston were gods and all
others mere mortals.
