Randy, On a list we know folks arrive at different stages of knowledge. So it seems good manners to accommodate their questions and state of mind. If they want to talk about minor economics in photogragpy, I'd be tolerant.

That is multiple approaches to photography so it doesn't get locked into one technology. That means freedom for us. If you can't fathom that, there's nothing I can do about it. Bob R Not quite sure who Randy is but I have a feeling you’re responding to me. Discussing the elements of crossover between different technologies would be an interesting read and I might be inclined to participate. Putting up with endless debates over the cost of getting prints from Fuji machines at Wal-Mart stores is hardly scintillating debate and it usually leads to the type of response you just gave. I like Justin’s response far better. Bob Randall ________________________________________________________________________ Check out the new AOL.
