We were talking about a situation like this on our trip home from VT Sunday. We stopped to take a picture and the memory card was full. Then somehow got on a tangent about how when we have kids, they'll never fully appreciate just snapping as many pictures as you can without worry, not having to pay $8 for film and decide "hmmm... free doubles or a free can of film".

I remember my first camera had the separate stick for the flash bulbs with the 8 bulbs on it.

All the old time fisherman probably said the same thing about us "young guys" with GPS, Radar, Braid line, etc, etc, etc. I guess it happens to every generation

On my way back to VT on sunday from RI between brattleboro and Rt 103 I was counting no VT license plates going the other way, average was 10 to one. And my first camera was a brownie.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!
