I dunno, I think it's a pretty personal thing. I find it kind of ghoulish and morbid to thrive on disaster like that. (Mind you, this is me personally, so I know that lots of other people have absolutely no problem doing it, and that's fine ). So yeah, personally, I'd miss the one in a lifetime events that revolved around disaster. Maybe that means that in 50 years I won't be making a million dollars on a polaroid, but that's something I'm willing to live with (yes, I know she didn't set out to capture it, it was just the only example I could think of). Happy once in a lifetime opportunities are much more my thing. I'm pretty attached to my own set of ethics / conscience.
