posted on 09.03.09 Converstion with Dandara, my 8-year-old niece, while we are looking at an illustration in OBSOLETE. The drawing is of a roll of 35mm film.
  • Me: What are these things in the picture?
  • Dandara: It's tape. Like from a tape recorder.
  • Me: Yeah? Tell me more.
  • Dandara: It's coming out. It's like when you take pictures there used to be tape. Or something.
  • Me: You sure that's what it is?
  • Dandara: Well, I don't know. Maybe it's a battery.
