Default RIP Kodachrome

It's official at Kodak, on NPR and everywhere else: the current
production run of Kodachrome is the last, and Dwayne's, the only lab
left processing it, will cease that processing at the end of 2010. The
best of the best is gone (actually, the best of the best died a few
years ago- Kodachrome 25, successor to Kodachrome II, was discontinued
and only ISO 64 remained). A few links to this sad news:

Digital

has won, It has killed off the only competitor that was irrefutably better.
