RE: Permanency of VDB (test) (becoming OT)
In the early 80's, I was a partner with two others in a sailboat here in
Chicago. One of my partners was a regional inspector for the EPA.
Whenever we would pass by the steel mills, refineries, and chemical
plants on the southern end of the lake, he would tell us how many tons
of really nasty pollutants, especially heavy metals like chromium and
cadmium, each plant released into the air and water on a daily and
weekly basis.
It's good that we in alt-photo take care to minimize chemical pollution,
but in our entire lives we won't put as much poison into the environment
as one of these plants does in one day.

I guess we all have to make our peace with our consciences on these
issues. I gather that except for *automobiles* we as "cottage industry"
do
are a mere blip as compared to pollution of industry...
