    Re: 7 Stops

    Has nothing to do with "anti digital rants", which certain people endless rant about themselves. I'm just playing ping pong with Tin Can, plus the "Oh? in a different post. So my response wasn't directed against "digi" at all, but the notion that CN films have realistically usable 12 stop ranges in any serious qualitative sense. They don't.

    7 stops? Thought this was about the TinMan taking a Bus Trip.

    I was mostly being terse with words… poking at your comment on terseness.

    It's not wise for any tin man to take a bus trip. There's a risk of getting recycled into a side panel or something like that. Then if someone steals your watch, you'll go into cardiac arrest.

    I thought it was because without the proper lubricant you'd be dropped off on the side of the road for not paying your bus fare (on your 7stop search for Nimmie Ames ) and have to wait endlessly for some wannabe extra from GLEE to show up with her dog to oil you up.. then when you eventually find her she's shacked up with Chopfyt, some guy she hooked up with on Tinder.

    … but, as usual, the reference was completely opaque.

    Well...at least I'm searching for a bit of objectivity amidst, it would seem, an otherwise infinite sea of emulsions!
