Digital BW, The Print

You guys are much more knowledgeable then I that's for sure.. Product changes can be driven by many stimuli, David's view is certainly one of them but today I would think their are many others that are possible an probably affect the industry more.... Certainly the availability of certain materials or components change over time , changes could be driven for cost reasons, material availability reasons.. combinations of material availabity and cost reasons.. Could even be as simple as the wood materials that that are a primary component is different then 10/15 years ago.. Today much product comes from new growth trees not old growth.. They are not the same.. Logically I would think the world of paper making is continually changing and shall be forever. We can all get that they have a design target for their product but to assume that stands still I think would not be correct.

  Eric, the changes you talk about to watercolor papers, wouldn't they
  consist primarily of changes the manufacturers are forced to make in order
  to make the paper characteristics come out the same in the aggregate from
  batch to batch?
