Re: Pictorico OHP film

Hi Sandy,

I'm not sure, but that wasn't your original question. Your question was
has it been discontinued, which was the subject of the original flurry.

I forget who it was that confirmed Pictorico's marketing decision to sell
larger media through these other folks, but I believe they got the referral
through a manager at Pictorico who confirmed it was the same stuff. But,
as the other King states in his signature quoting the RPS - Take no man's
word for it.

I'd call chromaline and see if you can get a muckity-muck on the line to
confirm, or get some samples to do a carbon14 or flame test or something. :-)

I can say based on the output my friends sent to me, it appears to be the
same stuff.
