Subject: [Leica] When did Kodachrome really die?

The huge recent flurry of publicity notwithstanding, I was wondering, how
many LUG shooters were REALLY still regularly shooting Kodachrome?

I really can't remember the last roll I shot.  It probably was in the
1970's, maybe earlier.

When Primary Color opened in New Orleans and offered two Ektachrome runs a
day, I kissed Kodachrome goodbye.

I mentioned this before but it was buried in another thread.

I'm just wondering, how long has it been since you shot the stuff, not
counting this recent "drink the kool-aid" rush.
