73 Easting was recorded perfectly for endearingly atomic reasons. Every
tank left its tracks in the sand, and they were mapped precisely by
analysts after the battle.
"Atomic backup" is a term I predict a future for. It's one reason that
studios like Disney/Touchstone still shoot everything on film. One, it's
still higher resolution than digital. Two and more important, it's a more
reliable master/archive medium than digital. We'll know T&B has been
successful when Disney changes its policy to digital master/archive.
