Have you seen _Villa Rides_ with Yul Brynner? There is a scene in there in which Pancho Villa's army receives their first machine gun, and one soldier loads it and begins firing without putting it into the base. He is unable to control it or stop it and bullets go flying in all directions.

I wouldn't put a penny into Kodak's film division. But if someone from Orwo came to me asking for an investment, I'd be happy to write them a check. Orwo knows their customers and they know what they want. Kodak doesn't even seem to know their own employees let alone their customers. --scott
