Welcome back! As you can see the camera's battery is functioning again. The battery arrived yesterday actually. I had it shipped to my school so that we didn't have to deal with the Student Post Office here in Sewanee. It normally takes a bit too long to get a package. I couldn't put you through that.

Of course I forgot my keys yesterday and couldn't open my mailbox until today. Typical.

I replaced the battery, turned on the camera, and . . . nothing. I silently swore. I pondered my next move. Where could I buy a camera we could afford? I re-packed the new battery. I put the old battery into the camera, and guess what. I worked. I took a dozen pictures in a row.

Apparently the old battery just needed to know it was replaceable.

Now I'm off to write a nasty e-mail to Roger Ebert.
