Exactly how I feel.

I feel good when I get a developed film back, and look at the photos.  Film 
doesn't take a whole lot of effort to put away (although I could be a lot 
more organized).

I have a "I don't really care" feeling when I shoot a digital photo, or when 
I'm off-loading the data onto the hard drive.  

But, I'm getting better at printing off the digital photos that I really 
care about.

Five or ten years from now scares me.  I'm not so scared about having to 
root through negatives to find a shot.

But searching through a hard drive to find a shot, five to ten years from 
now?  Yeah, sure.

Vick
