Stephen,
I agree with everything you said but alas I have been working on 6 very
delicate 4x5 images for weeks and I do notice even the smallest drop of B in
the emultion. For years it seemed to go unnoticed but I must disagree with
you. I do think that the "silkeness" (is that a word) is distroyed with any
cholrate at all. I am hopeing that the dichromate in the developer will
prove to be the solution. So far my results are quite promising.
