It seems curious things befell Raphael.  My photo has never appeared either.  Possibly not my name either though I haven't checked.  It was an adventure and a learning experience.

I found my name at the end of Raphael, but no photo or other reference for some folks above me and there was no one below me.  It was as though I had kept the camera!  Curious.  I drove 30 miles for the photo and have never seen it.

You are right.
There was only one project with three cameras.
The big thing with the original idea was that all of us used exactly the same equipment and waited to the surprise which came with the development / scan / publish process.
Meanwhile, Bob published on the web a lot of pictures documenting the ongoing.
A great fun that I'm doubt will be with digital.
One more thing: There were at least 10,000 ! e-mails around this enterprise.  
I remember how the Americans had a very big argue about the rights on the pictures.
Me, and I think most of the Europeans, only wanted to have fun.

As I recollect it, there was only one pass the camera event, but that 3 
cameras were circulated around the world.

I still remember the picture I took, and do remember seeing it on the web, 
but cannot remember the web location.

Why not try another "Pass the Camera" event, but change the procedures.  Ask 
members to take just 1 picture in their neighbourhood given a 1 week window, 
most will do this digitally these days, then send in for a display.

I'm trying to recall.  Weren't there two pass the camera events?  I know 
that I participated in one of them, but perhaps not the other.  Did we ever 
see the photographs?  It seems to me that I drove over to the 1930's San 
Jacinto Monument* and photographed it with the disposal camera.  I don't 
recall ever seeing the image.

*Jesse Jones, Roosevelt's Treasury Secretary or Secretary of Commerce found 
Federal Money to support the project.

I lost the link to the Pass the Camera Project, is it still on-line ?

I thinks we where pioneers on the "Photosharing" front!

I’m not.

He didn’t had a chemical disaster.

He had a film that was shot by many members including him but for 
unknown
reason (I can only guess…) the outcome didn’t pleased him and he had 
decided
not to show it to the group members.

This deed was not agreed by all the group but he didn’t changed his 
mind.

A very unsocial behavior .

I, for one, miss Jan's contributions and his diatribes.  As I recall, 
he
left the list after he had a chemical disaster with the first pass the
camera project and many of us severely criticized him for his 
failure--as if
none of us had ever failed....
