Ripose, you gave me an idea: for years my dad has been asking for scans of old family photos but it's just so much work to scan and reprint or put them on CD. He couldn't see them on CD in the hospital anyway. I could get into my photo stash from years gone by 70s and 80s) and just send him some outright. It would mean never getting them back but his sister has done the same for me and it's meant a lot. Only problem is my mom: she is protective of those old photos. Giving them to a guy she divorced years ago might not go down well. (They're at her house.)
