Reading this took me back to the intro photography course I took back in college a decade ago. I'm told a couple years later they had switched to digital for their courses because they lost their source for reagents for their paper processor, and getting a more modern piece of equipment just wasn't cost effective. In that semester I learned that getting a "great" image out of a digital camera still isn't as satisfying as getting an "ok" image after spending time in the darkroom, smelling all the chemistry, and fighting with color balance and exposure time.
