Not only a loss to photography, but a loss to history.

Nothing will ever be the same.

I will miss you, Kodachrome.

Truly the saddest day in archival history. "The Digital information age" will lead to the largest destruction of mankind's permanent records, the worst destruction of archival material since the burning of the Library of Alexandria. Even the videos stored on the servers of Youtube will not last forever. My dislike for Digital imagery grows ever stronger.

Ah! I saw it on their order forms and assumed that they did it themselves. Bummer.

Definitely sad to find this today. Did not realise that this had happened.

Indeed. The letters and photos sent by relatives in Europe to my ancestors here in the US in the 1870s and 1880s have also still survived and are still with us today. Interestingly I found some of their descendants in Europe via genealogy websites who were thrilled to get copies of those. The German language family bible w/ family info written in it has also survived and is the hands of descendents today.

Not that technology is bad, I work for it, it just has its place.

...By the way, let's see a solar flare take out a telegraph, crash you pen and paper or erase a daguerreotype photo... :)
