[Leica] How long will it take for film to disappear

[Afterswift@aol.com]

Probably forever vis a vis human existence on this or any other planet for 
the simple reason that a digital image is really a publication print -- a dot 
affair. Certainly true of even the best inkjet printers. 

The negative is the DNA of still photography. You can't have life without DNA 
and you can't have photography without a negative. Photography came into 
existence without the negative for a few years -- just as organic chemistry 
did about a billion years ago -- but the technology found its DNA and will 
never depart from it. Chalk that up to a form of evolution.
