So how long will your avarage black and white fiberbased print last?
Silver will oxydize, so toning helps. Platinum and carbon prints are
supposed to outlast the paper they are printed on. Anyone have any numbers?
And while we are on how long will a negative last? Kodak claims at least 500
years for their Estar based moviestock.

the actors, they're the ones ridiculing your beloved Fuehrer...
Leo: What!? You can't do that, you can't shoot the actors,
they're not animals!
Max: They're not?!? Have you ever eaten with one???
