Re: The One Thing At Events Thats 'Got To Go'?
I would do away with the terrible orange cheddar cheese that people stash in their haversacks. Modern cheese is dyed orange using annatto. Over the years cheese producers have added more and more annatto to make cheese more aesthetically appetizing. So stick to the dull yellow cheese if you have to bring it to events.Lewis M Robinson Jr

Modern cameras. It's wrong (historically inaccurate), people know it's wrong, and they do it anyway. That's the textbook definition of farby, and there's no excuse that it's for safety or practicality, it's just for ego.

Some obviously inaccurate things are necessary for safety (firing blanks, clean drinking water, etc.), so that's a fair justification for some farbisms, but that excuse doesn't apply to cameras.

I'd have to say ignorance and pomposity in the command echelons.
