Donal,

In  December  I was in Atlanta and stopped in the Photo Barn, a fairly
good  sized  photo  store, to see if they had the Saunders enlargers. I
asked  them  about it and they swore up and down that Saunders did not
make  enlargers...all  but  implying  I  was  a  stupid idiot for even
asking...Showcase,  another  store in metro Atlanta had one sitting on
the shelf...boy am I stupid. Used to live and work near Photo Barn and
I knew back then they were idiots and I still wasted time going in the
damn place.

And  Jorge, If I had of had any spare time I would have looked you up,
but  alas it was a rapid trip through town. I only spoke to one friend
while  there and that was on the phone at midnight when I arrived. She
works  the  night shift on the photo desk at the AJC so I did not mind
calling. :)

Best regards,
 Harrison McClary
