Hi Jeffery, 

David closed his old store front and is working from his home. I do my own 
negative printing, scanning, etc., but I leave film development to someone 
more skilled than me.

That said, the pro lab I use (Ed's) is quite willing to use whatever elixir 
I can supply him with so I might give the 777 stuff a shot.

I may be Phoenix bound early next month. Do you know if the airlines allow 
this stuff in checked baggage?

Regards,

Greg
