Mark,

It's an interesting discussion - I meant to ask on your initial post - in
your "manifesto" (sorry - too many syllables..) "trashing the file"? Are you
assuming the original is digital? If it's film, do you only trash the file,
so that if the original were re-scanned, re-worked etc, it would in essence
be a different edition of the image (unless I guess you used the identical
machines/calibration and recorded every action and key-stroke)- or do you
trash the neg too?
