I agree completely.  Myself, I only use it for proofs.  The only
reason I said that to Richard is because there seemed to be a hint of
desperation in his situation, and if it was something temporary then
EEM could let him squeak by in the show without having to lay out a
bundle of sheckels for a roll just to make one print.  But if it's for
sale then forget it - it'll come back and bite you some day.  Even for
little freebie snaps for friends I use Kayenta.  I probably shouldn't
have said anything, my apologies.

Duane, thanks for the comment about old photos at auction - very
interesting stuff.

I'm still keeping the test print on the windowsill and will report if
anything changes.

Regards,
Clayton
