Well...firstly, I have a fridge full of K25. I drained France when the
news of the films demise came to me. No, I am not selling....

Secondly, I have taken to Kodak Ektachrome 100 VS. Yes, VS. Don't tell
anyone, but I really like the vibrant, live, somewhat exagerated colors.
Ok, it is not for everything, but when I return from a vacation, I really
want the sky to be *blue* and the trees *green* on my slides, no matter
what they really were. And I find that it is not as exagerated as it might
have been. 

I'd probably not use it for portraits, but then again...there I would not
use K25 either.

Just my preferences....yes, I know I am weird :)
