Twilight of the DSLR?

wrote: PeterN: You didn't hear about it. They are now selling bottles of dehydrated water. Wow! you must keep up. ;-) Bowser: Man, that must cut the shipping costs quite a bit! Davoud: One might think so, but that isn't the case. Given that the dehydrated water is in bottles, the volume shipped is the same as if they were selling hydrated water. PeterN: Wrong. It ships in flexible plastic bottles, that don't expand until the dehydrated water is hydrated. Saves a lot of counter space too. Ah, you must be in Europe. Typically a couple of years ahead of the U.S. in these kinds of innovations. The real advantage with flexible bottles is that you can keep air from the water and thus the taste of it becomes less stale over time... -- teleportation kills |

Better to sell bits of paper explaining how to get water from one's tap because bottled mineral water is a ecological disaster and a hoax. Thousands of sheets of paper could be shipped in the space taken up by one case of dehydrated water. And each person would only need to buy one sheet and then remember what it says. 1. Identify your sink... Which sink? I have three, so does it matter where the water comes from? And how does the water know whether or not it's supposed to go to the bathrrom or kitchen? I mean, I can't cook with bathroom water, can I? No! |

It isn't the best, but if someone just likes a glass or two a day it's inexpensive and consistent. Plus it's drinkable if you don't mind the lack of body in the taste. -- PeterN |

Why does it not surprise me that someone stole my concept. A similar thing happened when I wrote an offering memorandum for a nauga breeding farm, because Naugahyde was in short supply. check out the testomonials if confusted -- PeterN |

Wine boxes were invented in Australia and the first really succesful valve was invented in New Zealand. I therefore was priviliged to sample the early box wines. They were magnificent! Unfortunately, as the market grew, cheaper and cheaper wines were used and succeeded in pushing out the better wines on the basis of price. The box wine market in this part of the world has suffered from the flood of good to better moderately-priced bottled wines which have substantially taken over. The 'aging process' explanation seems peculiar unless the wine is being compared with wine in the now rare cork-sealed bottles. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

Cork sealed bottles are not rare here at all. I will not buy any wine for a gift or consumption at one sitting, unless it is cork sealed. To my taste boxed wine = bottled wine in quality, with the advantage going to boxed for convenience. I have tried vacuum pumps on bottles, but they only give you a couple of days extra. Boxed wine can last a lot longer after opening. -- PeterN |

Boxed wine can last a lot longer after opening. In theory :-) Not even in theory. After the first glass, air in the bottle oxides and ruins the wine. -- PeterN |
