There is hope for the future!

It occurs to me that one thing such folks can do is take up photography. Problem: nowadays you need a frickin' cellphone for that! Maybe there's a market for cheap point-and-shoot cameras...

There is a market and plenty of models of point and shoot cameras. And more reasons to take up sketching.
If you follow the news and analyze its message, most of the time it's either following the leader to something new or rejecting the trends. Those are two perennial stories.
But what do they really tell us?
The cell phones aren't evil, just the folks who scientifically pursue ways to addict us to using them incessantly and needlessly.

Can't remember when last I have seen P&S cameras anywhere. Particularly not cheap ones! Of course, it's always better to sketch.
