That makes at least two of us.

I completely understand the need for digital in the professional world, but
off the clock I don't yearn for anything that it provides, since I get my
fill of that work flow as a staff photographer.  I still love B&W film
photography, (and am a bit puzzled by the way people can give up something
that they once seemingly enjoyed).  The cameras, the chemicals, the smells,
are all part of the experience for me.

BTW, I'm another self-taught photographer.
