I guess I'm in luck. Living in NW Wyoming, there are virtually no
"environmental pollutants". Our biggest "urban center" is Cheyenne, with a
population of 53,011. :-)

I would be interested in reading about the "began to fade in 90 days"
problem, Bob. Can you cite printed or WWW references?

FWIW, I plan to do a 'torture test' on an Epson 2000P print - hang it in the
greenhouse above the cactus, exposed to full sun. We'll see how good it
really is! :-)

Best regards from Big Wonderful Wyoming,
