No matter how fast I could do it with the digital camera I don't think I would get the same thing out of it. The passion I have for formulating an idea stands alone. It is the important essence of what I do.

Style used to be an interaction between the human soul and tools that were limiting. In the digital era it will have to come from the soul alone.

Another thing to do with the blues is how they were recorded. They were done on the quick and some of that stuff was made on wire not even tape let alone digital.

As a result of the digital age and the decline of first-class mail there is no question that the Postal Service must change and develop a new business model.

Credit or debit cards for starters are nothing short of shoppers' Novocain.
