Well I kind of said that in response to the articles that implied that
anyone who preferred to do things the old way were assholes.
Somehow on this list "I prefer the analog process" always is reacted to
as if it was written "Anyone who uses digital is stupid". I guess that
is because many here have spent thousands of dollars on digital and are
a bit insecure about it.
Kevin said, and I said, that both processes are worthwhile, but we get
more pleasure out of the chemical process. The response was a vigorous
counter-attack. In some ways this list has become a digital list and any
counter opinion is to be stamped out before it becomes contagious.
To me Bill's comment does typify the general attitude I perceive here on
the list nowadays.

I don't think anyone has said that, only the opposite -- that chemical
is the way to go and those who don't agree are soulless automatons.
