Subject: [Leica] Media Life--NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART

I had heard many years ago, that the US government stored their software
code of most importance  on.......

B+W photo paper as printed ( wet darkroom) out 1's  and 0's.  The gist of
the conversation was that Photo paper was the only item they knew at that
time to have longevity of 100 years plus, and could prove it.

So the message for all of you out there with those there digital image
thingies..... print out your images onto B+W archival photo paper if you
want to keep those images almost forever.

I knew there was an advantage to my wet darkroom!!!

Frank Filippone, spent the day in the darkroom.... 3 new images made.
