Absolutely it's the results that count, Jeff! But we control freaks like to be
in on the concept behind it!
I'll admit to groove on the forth man i mean layer concept...
and i tend to give Fuji the benefit of the doubt (with the exception of Kodaks
Kodachrome and Panatomic x)
if Kodak can beat Fuji in this round then great i can hardly keep up with who's
on first this inning.
By the time i get around to shooting more color neg they would have leap
frogged. (Who's on second!:)

As to speakers i had a company bring some self powered speakers to a large
studio space i was in a while back  and i never got over that demonstration.
They sold me on the self powered speaker concept. But that is not yet to be for
this guy yet. Maybe a self powered woofer in the very near future; something to
rattle my enlarger in my darkroom to give my grain that soft edge! Better yet to
have one installed into the foundation of my house/stutio and have all the
stero's and tv's hooked up to it. Hell have my telephone hooked up to it!
