I probably slept thru my High School chemistry classes. I thought may be 
metol is a funny shorthand for me-tol :-) but google helps to educate 
again. Thanks for the info. This may make sense since I believe the couple 
rolls I developed in using D76 in the Jobo weren't that good.

In fact, I was just about to pick up the Darkroom Cookbook today when I 
brought the HP5 Plus, not really for mixing anything per se since while I 
am a half decent cook, neither being pedantically precise in the 
measurements nor "do not spill anything" is my strong suit. Nevertheless, 
it may make good reading.

Thanks.
