A quick ethics test....
Got this e-mail from my mom and it made me smile (a somewhat evil grin :evilgrin: What would you answer?



A Quick Ethics Test
What would you do???
This is a quick ethics test!

This test only has one question, but it's a very
important one. By giving an
honest answer, you will discover where you stand
morally.
The test features an unlikely, completely fictional
situation in which you
will have to make a decision. Remember that your
answer needs to be honest,
yet spontaneous. Please scroll down slowly and give
due consideration to
each line.

You are in Florida...Miami to be specific. There is
chaos all around you
caused by a hurricane with severe flooding. This is
a flood of biblical
proportions. You are a photojournalist working for a
major newspaper and
you're caught in the middle of this epic disaster.
The situation is nearly
hopeless.

You're trying to shoot career-making photos. There
are houses and people
swirling around you, some disappearing under the
water. Nature is unleashing
all of its destructive fury. Suddenly you see a man
floundering in the
water. He is fighting for his life, trying not to be
taken down with the
debris. You move closer . Somehow the man looks
familiar. You suddenly
realize who it is.

It's George W. Bush! At the same time you notice
that the raging waters are
about to take him under ... forever. You have two
options...you can save the
life of G.W. Bush or you can shoot a dramatic
Pulitzer Prize winning photo,
documenting the death of one of the world's most
powerful men.

So here's the question, and please give an honest
answer:

Would you select high contrast color film, or would
you go with the classic
simplicity of black and white?

seeing other people." (Bumper Sticker)
