Another of you fine lies, Soodie.

Here is what I actually wrote:
"I think, Bob, what you have to realize, is that as far as the
original poster is concerned, Harlem is a poor country."

No mention of Ethiopia.
Now do stop with the lies Soodie. Like the rotten child who
cannot be trusted, you will get caught ever time.

And in 100 years, our great-great-grandchildren will still be able to see
the images as long as they have electicity... while yours will need a time
machine, since the negatives and prints will have become unviewable by
then.

And guess what?  A print from a digital file is just as viewable under
light as a print from a negative.  You seem to keep forgetting about that
point.

Again, you must not have traveled in the small metro areas I've been in."

"Bear in mind that the average family income in these countries is less than 
US$ 100-

I'm not going to get into a p*issing match here, but your figures are far too 
low and border on the ludicrous.

Maybe we travel to different countries. "Poor" does not indicate "Destitute," 
though some countries in eastern Europe qualify for the title, as well as a 
nation like Ethiopia. My remark was not intended to explain poverty. I made 
the original remark in context with being able to view pictures in those 
countries without a vast network of electricity. Eastern Europe come easily 
to mind. 
More succinctly: you need electricity to use a computer or view images on it. 
To view photographs, one only needs ~light~.

I think, Bob, what you have to realize, is that as far as the
original poster is concerned, Harlem is a poor country.
I saw a news report out of Afghanistan a few weeks ago. The
people on the ground there didn't have a clue about why, all of
a sudden, there were bombs being dropped on their heads.
They had never heard of the WTC, and didn't have a clue about
the significance of Sept. 11.
Aww never mind. This is, after all, just the internet.
