There is a major collector from New York who is conspicuously absent
from this list...
One on the list has as few as ten machines!... even I can beat that.

Actually i was and i did fill out the interview questionnaire sheet
however you will notice that each collector has a photo of himself posted
next to his name
when i sent in my photo Eric (the owner of the web page) informed me he would be returning my interview sheet and he would be unable to post my entry as he had no interest in scaring off potential visitors to the site

They Rejected Me On FaceBook Also Regards
Steve

The list will be incomplete without an entry from the Southern Hemisphere
Who Could It Be Now?

Well, I ain't exactly Brad Pitt myself, so if you got knocked back because
of an unsightliness problem, then I will too. Come to think of it, Nick
(spacious_mind) is also not represented.

Well, I am not exactly an oil painting either :P so for me the questionnaire was a little too personal. Therefore I never even attempted to complete the questions.

ps.. I probably would have sent in Steve's photo had I completed :P

I'm confused. Does that mean the photo wasn't rejected or that, after all, the mug on it could be confused with a young Robert Redford?

People Magazine May Be Interested Regards,

And now it's time for Mark himself ! Our great programmer has a weakness for dedicated machines and agreed to answer our questions.
It's here:
http://eric.terrien.pagesperso-orange.f ... %20Uniacke
Big thanks to him and to Steve javascript:emoticon('8)') for his intermediary.
For those who do not speak French, here is the original text of his answers in English:
