I am an experimental scientist and work for what used to be called the National Bureau of Standards. It is an essential part of my nature to test hypotheses. Please stay tuned for my report. I am sure that you will find it very interesting. Don't believe everything you read in Shutterbug. Incidentally, I plan to get a Wein cell and test it. Please stay tuned for my report on the PX625 versus PX625U (alkaline). I was out all afternoon taking data and will write up the results tonight. Independent of the above, I really believe that all people seriously engaged in a technical field, such as photography, should understand the capabilities of their materials, tools, and environment. Intellectual curiosity is simply axiomatic with me.
