Kodachrome

They also won't know what all those big black DVDs in your basement are and how to get them into a DVD drive :-)

"Mama gonna take my kewl cell phone away..."

Sorta rhymes :)

No, but they'll think it's cool sounding and make a rap song out of it. Play it while out in public with their multicolor hair, boom boxes on their shoulders and pants hanging down to their knees with clown suspender keeping them from hitting their ankles.

I don't think Paul did either. Kodachrome was for slides. He never struck me as a ... Carousel sort of guy.

Powerpoint and Kodachrome scan exactly the same. Creepy.

No, no, no...those are the pre-cursor to 8 inch floppies..

I havea Kodak electronic picture frame on the wall, it displays, from an SD card, sequentially: picture of biggest nuke, Snoopy, several galaxies.

I will always rememeber them...

They'll roll their eyes when you compare them to a DVD- like some oldster calling an iPod a fancy "grammophone".

Will they even remember Kodak?

Recently I recalled with nostalgia the process of playing a record - how you had to handle it, getting out the felt brush, putting 3 drops of cleaner fluid on it, and running the record with the brush gently resting on it while rotating the brush. Then cleaning the needle.

You had to love your music to do that. Eliminating the need to make an effort for something you love is like using Woody Allen's orgasmatron.

I still have a roll of ISO64 Forgot to use it before Duane's stopped processing it.

Sure, for consumer use, but Kodachrome film was also widely used for professional photography intended for print publication.

There is, however, a long history of lyricists taking license (or being ignorant) of technical details. Pink's _Like a Pill_ ("shortage (sic) in the switch") and Nazereth's _This Flight Tonight_ ("up (sic) go the flaps, down go the wheels") come to mind.

Allegedly the cheap consumables printers is still a going concern.

Huh. I didn't realize that was true. The other films seemed better adapted, but maybe that ran into Kodak's processing cost.

I just remember Dad talking about "This is for prints, this is for slides" when I asked him why he had two kinds of film. He was no professional, just an amateur.

Of course! that's kinda the joke. Billy Joel talked about this at length... somewhere - use the sound of the words...

My digital camera bears the Kodak marque.

Its the chemical photo side of the business that collapsed, the fate of the other parts of the Co remains to be seen.

What's a "grammophone"?

What's a "DVD"?
