I am glad this list communication is mostly in english. It would be fun if
we were writting in portuguese where every noun has a gender, feminine or
masculine without any logical reason to help memorising it. ( Hand -
feminine; nose - masculine; face - feminine; hair - masculine, etc.). We
use the word person ( which by the way is feminine ) to get around the
she/he problem.
Digital images will be more and more part of our lifes. They are not good
or bad, just new. They are here to stay and I don´t see them as a threath,
but as an interesting complement to what we do.
As to getting our hands dirty, maybe one day they´ll get lucky while
replacing one of the ink cartridges.... ;-)
