    When the sergeant asks if you have film for your brownie, he wasn’t talking about Kodak moments.

    I wonder what they’ll stop making first – film cameras or phones with expandable memory?

    My town lucked out. Fotomat wanted to put a processing plant in that would use millions of gallons of water a day. We didn’t have the capacity and the deal fell thru. A couple of years later they were on the downward slide and gone soon after.

    Cynthia, I’ve never seen technospeak as one of the languages on the translation apps.

    lots of film cameras around. Getting film is difficult.

    Help your grandpa, Cindy. You can mail it to a place that will develop his film and send him the pictures on a thumb drive.

    Hell, I remember the Brownie camera! Took great pictures if you could get mom to snap them.

    She needs the translator — that is, she needs to google terms such as Brownie camera, film, negative, prints and photo developing. Then she’ll know what he’s asking for, and can look for a service online that lets you mail in your old film for developing and printing.

    They need to go to a CVS, where they still develop film. Of course a roll that old probably won’t look very good.

    I remember Fotomats, but I didn’t know they were called that. As for “Brownie,” at first I thought the film got baked into a confection.
