[alt-photo] Re: Rising Stonehenge Flaw?

[Paul Viapiano]

Yes, my latest batch is from DS as well, bought in late spring of 2010.

It needed much more acidification than any paper previously, about 8% for 
15-20 min if I recall. I'll check my notes...

Without the heavy acidification, I had the same results as you have shown...
