->> Another obscure fact: That date isn't from the Terminator films. It's from the TV show 'The Sarah Connor Chronicles'.
The date from the movies was August 29th, 1997. |

| ->> One of my students asked me about the new features of CS5 prior to it's release, to which I responded "If the hype is true, it's basically Skynet." He didn't get it at all. |

I guess we've been safe for a while.
Or we're all sleeping in giant pod bays with our brains connected to a giant matrix... |

->> With the metallic dyes used in the SX70, those images could have almost survived the death and destruction of Skynet ;-o
They certainly survived longer than the organic dyes in the Kodak instant product....
Gotta love Arnold. Guy made a career in movies and politics based on his Austrian accent and weight lifting... |

->> Mark,
You're spot on! I remembered that it was a Polaroid, but not that it was an SX-70. I've got one of those stored away somewhere. Took a lot of fun pictures with it back in the day.
Anyway, great movie! |
