I can see why people leave this place in droves. Last time I checked my darkroom was loaded full of digital equipment, timers, densitometers, color computers all 20 years old the most recent addition is a computer. Yawn. So long everybody. Yawn...Digital imaging means photoelectric, not densitometers. One should think before making fallacious statements. Densitometers are not used in digital imaging nor is my Gralab digital timer... |

But I also try to recognize reality. Oh gee, what will you do? Maybe you should just go digital. Ah, yes, I hear you saying that out of pure spite. Quite your style, that. But my friend, don't you realize that when that big wave comes and smashes everything that's not digital to smithereens, that all of us who like darkroom-type photography will suffer? Including you? No thank you. I won't go digital, not just yet. I rue this trend the same way I rue the results of the recent election. Like you voted for the democrats (not.) No, I did not. What of it? (Hint: I didn't vote for the guy who won either.) I vote for democrats, not necessarily Democrats. -- Don't blame Ralph Nader: blame Gavin Newsom. |

Oh, the sky is falling the sky is falling! Dear me, what shall we do? "Nothing," saith seer David, "It's like rape, just lay back and enjoy it." Nothing is inevitable, only what we allow. And at least I don't roll over and play dead. Digital lies and then piggy backs itself on film photography in order to gain market share. I've never met a digital geek who didn't utter complete fallacies while knowing absolutely nothing about actual photographic processes, including digital processes. They're so full of digital spin and marketing B.S. attacking film (and have been since day one) it's hard to tell where one lie ends and another begins. "Digital is film" (bull ****); "digital kills film resolution" (bull ****); "digital is as archival as film" (bull ****); "digital has better color (bull ****); etc. etc. etc. Digital is about stock options, not photography. Apparently what you can't stand is when someone actually stands up to the lies... No thank you. I won't go digital, not just yet. Who cares? I rue this trend the same way I rue the results of the recent election. Like you voted for the democrats (not.) No, I did not. What of it? (Hint: I didn't vote for the guy who won either.)

If it weren't for narcissistic self serving Nader, Gore would have won the electorial college in 2000 and Bush would not have been around to run in 2004 and make gay marriage an issue. Any Bush presidency is a Nader victory. |
