I checked a few years back and saw all the photos from two days after 9-11 (taken on a then brand new amazing Sony camera which took 4 photos in good format size per 3 1/2" floppy (yes, you put the floppies in the camera as you went along), were still ok but I immediately backed them all up anyway. Two years later, they were deteriorating, some were not readable any longer. Oddly, some of my old floppies are still fine! Go figure.
Those cameras we're great because of their size and weight too. Stable devices, they were. I knew a girl who bought boxes of orange floppies and would leave her art and perspective on events on discs for random people to find and take home. Pretty avant garde...
Any police blotter updates from Vara's city or Pahrump?
