		You Rock.
 A skiff and a title, defined, with a comma in the middle.
 A true signature my friend.
 
 You should send that 5D in for service, as there is probably something
 wrong with the sensor. I mean look at the graininess at ISO 200.
 It looks good in this image, but ISO 200 should be a little cleaner.
