Improved catechol/ascorbic developer

If you need NaOH, don't come to my place. Not only won't I have any (or sulphuric acid either, for that matter) but I'll probably be out taking my chances walking across the street.

I won't invite you for Lutefisk, then

NaOH is perfectly safe if handled with respect. There are many other chemicals we use regularly which require protective gear up to full HazMat in addition to respect if they are to be perfectly safe - yet we use them.

Quote: "Sandy has made a lot of claims and pronouncements regarding Hypercat, based on two very simple tests. I believe that He knows enough about developer formulation and testing to know that his results can not be considered conclusive, or his tests exhaustive, and making the claims he has is irresponsible, at best."

Jay,

I find this to be humorous if nothing else. This is aside of yours is sort of like a "Toss Pot calling a Kettle black"....I would give your viewpoint a lot more credibility if you weren't the one making all sorts of "out of you A**" claims.

Personally I have more faith in Sandy's results then I will ever have for yours...

Jay... Have you continued work on the HyperCat? I'm just finishing some wringing out of other projects and was going to return to some HyperCat and variant testing. Is your formula still intact or have you massaged it at all? I may soon have access to a microscope that is mounted on an x/y coordinated device that will measure to 0.5µ. Does anyone know if this is enough magnification/accuracy to compare grain clumping sizes? It might be interesting to validate and quantify what seems to be apparent in projected negatives. Does anyone have any resource for information on this sort of thing?

What are you referring to?

I think he is referring to the spats that went on between Jay D. and Sandy K.. I don't miss those at all!
