And if I want to be really depressed, I can go look at this pathetic
offering...

And to think that I was pissed off at the two rolls of Agfapan I lost
last weekend. Your story puts my problems into perspective.

That, Phong, is an even sadder story...I got a couple bricks of Tri-X
from life - I was "going out" with the daughter of a deputy editor
;-)...and Life processed the film...But they decided against doing
anything on the festival.....and, at some point over the years, during
some move or other, the negs and contacts disappeared......You should
have seen the shot of Dylan, curly hair and all, bundled up in a
peacoat, talking to a small group of people including, as I recall,
Peter Yarrow...or the shot of Dave Van Ronk, stretched out on the grass
during the Sunday afternoon "new folks" concert - the year that the
Kweskin Jug Band - featuring Maria D'Amato - Jose Feliciano, Buffie St.
Marie, and Tom Paxton were among the 'new folk.' Oh, and the shot of
Missippi John Hurt playing during a workshop? Ah, but now they're all
reduced to fish stories...the ones that got away!:-(....
