I happened to come across this blog post that featured the above photo with the question of "what is the woman doing with all those recorders?"
Some of the comments on the post were pretty amusing, but I thought the picture overall told more of a story than just her incredible ability to hold six recorders at once. The reliance on recorders is so prevalent today and seems to be increasing by the day. While I recall in most of my classes the professors still preach jotting notes and such, it seems like a lot of those in the field have decided that to be an unnecessary measure.
But as someone who has had both a tape recorder and digital recorder fail -- I can definitely appreciate the tactic of bringing six different recorders to ensure a complete copy.
