Doesn't surprise me at all. More than one young whippersnapper working
at the black and white printing outfit where my young whippersnapper
daughter works asked, when she was expressing great joy at the fact that
she was having to drive to NY to return some Susan Maiselas negatives to
their home at Magnum - "What's Magnum?"

Honest. And this at a place that prints for some of the greats...

Fookin hopeless. But hey, they know who all the 12-year-old pop "stars"
are....
