hmmmm..... Not quite sure how this relates to my stance on vis a
vis birth control and Catholicism, but I'll play along. I use Macs,
mostly.
Seems I have some agnostic tendencies, as I am happy that the Mac now
has some Unix, accessible with command lines, in it. Just as I am
happy to use AF, AE, IS and digital at times and a LF woodie at
others. Religion with a capital R tends to be limiting.
AF: auto-focus as used in some cameras
AE: auto-exposure as used in some cameras
IS: image stabilization as used in some photographic lenses
LF: large format denoting camera film sizes larger than the largest
common rollfilm
:-)
