If I want a really good laugh, I sit back like some old man and think back on the conversations I had with Kodak people, the crazy horseshit they all used to spout, like some batshit godless religion. I got a tech one time alone in the smoke room, he's talking to the digital artist guy here him being the film machine expert, and I was always a prick, I'd always tell them they were all doomed. Y'know, good naturedly. They controlled a godamn city and had team meetings in stadiums. They all knew they were on a runaway train and the bridge was fucking out, O they didn't shut up about it. See, they had a plan! They would never maintain their margins true, but digital, see, digital. "Yeah yeah, but that's assuming every mom & pop phototgraphy studio doesn't go out of business! What about your margins then?" He knew, I could see it in his eyes, that same look I saw in the Chancellor's lackey's eyes, and I got that one that one time to finally fucking admit it. The city of Rochester was so fucked.

Yeah, I helped try to sell some of their Intellectual Property during the spinning down the drain era. These fuckers had invented digital photography early enough that they could have owned the market - but intentionally shoved it in a drawer so as to not hit film sales. Now I think the only film they make is commercial film for movies. There are vast parking lots in north west Rochester that used to be buildings.
