it's like the guy who sells you an anti tiger device in Alaska and says it works so well because you don't see any tigers in Alaska.

 

I'm not saying it won't happen again, I'm saying that because it hasn't happened again isn't necessarily because little George and his band has done anything constructive about it.

 

They are now going to allow small sharp objects back on planes from what I've heard, proving how useless this tactic was.

 

appalling and ineffective? exactly.....

"Gee whiz, I must have missed all the news about the highjackings since then"

 

and how many american hijackings did you hear about before 911?

Lenny I couldn't disagree with you more. I have done n- and dilute dev negs that have not had this problem and print up fine. boosting exposure a bit always help with my n- dev.

"just look at Mamiya 6x7 SLRs! "

 

I know, nothing else like it, nice big image and rotating backs. wouldn't trade it for anything else in the world.

do you have people who know nothing about clothing designing and making the clothing? why do you have a website designer? why not do it yourself?

 

I think you don't realize how important it is to hire a good photographer to do the job.

I've worked for several high in labs and many run of the mill ones in the past, and have seen just about everything run through the wrong process and have never seen anything that needed to be dumped from just one roll.

again, as I said, if your bw is correctly exposed and developed, it will be just as easy as color.

"the easiest B&W films ot scan are the chromogenics"

 

I would have to disagree, true bw films can be fine tuned for scanning far beyond the capabilities of chromogenics.

with a regular reel you just put the film back to back then load as you would with one roll.

actually you would have to run A LOT of the wrong film in a processor to really need to dump the chems..

it doesn't require a special reel, just make sure film is loaded back to back, not emulsion to emulsion.

newbie--fine, rank? well, that's one of the good things about the internet.
