Re: Gum Humidity Question



Oh come on, that's silly. One thing people have remarked about me for my whole life is what a great sense of humor I have (my whole family is this way; we are always laughing all the time). But I've often thought that people on this list don't get my humor, and this remark just validates that perception.

Katherine,

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but you have "sense of humor"
cancer. Unfortunately, there is no known cure for this disease, and it
will be with you for the rest of your life.

I'm so sorry...

Chris, I'm curious why you refer to this as "spontaneous
hardening" rather than  "dark reaction."  Dark reaction has an
even steeper relationship to humidity than speed of the light
reaction does; for  gum the relationship is close to vertical, for
this reason I never  let coated paper sit around in my humid
environment.

Mark Nelson's saying he experienced this sometimes.....

I'd just ignore it if I were you,
