Yes! I read that in the New York Times this morning. Very interesting 
stuff. Humphry Davy, by the way, did some experiments with photography 
in the mid-1700's, IIRC. Made photographic images on leather (sounds 
kinky, doesn't it?) but never made the breakthrough of inventing *fixer* 
so the images weren't permanent.
