I've never used Facebook, but I heard that an old woman posted a
message saying that she was going into the kitchen to make a cup
of tea! A few minutes later she posted another message
asking "Does anybody know what I went into the kitchen for"

The price of the K20D went up after it was discontinued, partly because of the price difference to the next model up, the K-7. I expect the K-R price will also rise, because the only other alternative will be to stump up enough for the K-5

Given the amount of birds that die of starvation each year there are arguably more of them around than the environment can comfortably support anyway.
I don't think anyone would say that about humans Yet it seems acceptable to talk about birds like that

Some birds are almost extinct.

You could try Daylight Bulbs if you have to take photos under
room lighting. I've never tried them, but craft shops sell them
as do Homebase. It won't be a problem if you use f/5.6 -f/11
because of depth of field. Personally I'd just use flash.

No problems about it being discontinued. I got load of
discontinued cameras going back to a Pentax Spotmatic.
