drinking Bud makes me nervous, and a little ill. why? because the only time i drink it is when i'm at a party with a keg. i just know (from years of experience) that i'm going to be drinking far too much of the stuff (and probably throwing it back up in the bathroom). yuck. true. -c

They put it in cans similar to those surrounding Budweiser to make you think it's beer, but the trivial observation that it doesn't change upon passing through one's body reveals the truth. :|

Accounting and photography are, well, a tad different. If they had any similarities I would not be so into photography. One is a art, the other is not. This is why you cannot mechanize it. That robot is quaint and I am sure takes wonderful wedding photographs... but wedding photographs are forumalic and hardly art. You don't see wedding photographs being exhibited except by proud, yet misguided, parents. The very best photographs are the ones that break all the rules, all the rules that that robot is following and would never break because it does not have creativity. One day an AI infused robot surely will break through and take artful photographs, but then it won't be mechanization, it will be creativity all over again. Interesting link though :)

This is why you cannot mechanize it. They are quite different, i'll agree. But that's not quite what i was getting at - all joking aside, there are still human accountants around. The difference is, you won't find scores of them packed into tight rows carefully figuring up ledger sheets by hand; instead it's more likely there'll be one or two accountants using PCs. And anyone who's been paying attention to the news here in the States for the last year knows accountants *do* have quite a bit of creativity, though it tends to manifest itself in rather unpleasant ways... By all means, the role of the experienced photographer isn't gonna go away; but i could easily see them becoming more of a hobbiest / luxury for large publications sort of thing.

Ditch the Bud and grab Samuel Adams. Best american beer I've ever tried. It's infact one of the best beers I've ever tried. -- Eventhough the forrest is full of trees, there's still no tree between the trees.

Makes you wonder what Guiness passed through, doesn't it? :~ -- Eventhough the forrest is full of trees, there's still no tree between the trees.

A bit better, but not much I'm afraid. -- Eventhough the forrest is full of trees, there's still no tree between the trees.
