When kids accidentally come across Paul Simon singing "Kodachrome" on
some oldies station, they won't know what he's talking about.

They also won't know what all those big black DVDs in your basement are
and how to get them into a DVD drive :-)

No, but they'll think it's cool sounding and make a rap song out of

it. Play it while out in public with their multicolor hair, boom boxes
on their shoulders and pants hanging down to their knees with clown
suspender keeping them from hitting their ankles.

I don't think Paul did either. Kodachrome was for slides. He never
struck me as a ... Carousel sort of guy.

Powerpoint and Kodachrome scan exactly the same. Creepy.

I havea Kodak electronic picture frame on the wall,
it displays, from an SD card, sequentially:
picture of biggest nuke, Snoopy, several galaxies.

I will always rememeber them...

They'll roll their eyes when you compare them to a DVD- like some
oldster calling an iPod a fancy "grammophone".

Recently I recalled with nostalgia the process of playing a record - how you
had to handle it, getting out the felt brush, putting 3 drops of cleaner
fluid on it, and running the record with the brush gently resting on it
while rotating the brush. Then cleaning the needle.

You had to love your music to do that. Eliminating the need to make an
effort for something you love is like using Woody Allen's orgasmatron.

I don't think Paul did either. Kodachrome was for slides. He never
struck me as a ... Carousel sort of guy.

Sure, for consumer use, but Kodachrome film was also widely used for
professional photography intended for print publication.

There is, however, a long history of lyricists taking license (or
being ignorant) of technical details. Pink's _Like a Pill_
("shortage (sic) in the switch") and Nazereth's _This Flight Tonight_
("up (sic) go the flaps, down go the wheels") come to mind.

Allegedly the cheap consumables printers is still a going concern.

Huh. I didn't realize that was true. The other films seemed
better adapted, but maybe that ran into Kodak's processing cost.

I just remember Dad talking about "This is for prints, this is
for slides" when I asked him why he had two kinds of film. He
was no professional, just an amateur.

Of course! that's kinda the joke. Billy Joel talked about this
at length... somewhere - use the sound of the words...
