That's pretty much the same here, although with a somewhat
different take.  I assume that I'll want a 16x20 print from
Tri-X 135.  Perhaps that's why there was all
the fuss on the subject, as I suspect that many people who've
participated don't make large prints, or don't make them very
often.  I admit that it's a presumption on my part to think in
that manner, but I don't think I'm that far off.

SURVEY:  How many list members make 11x14 or larger B&W prints,
and how often?

For me, photography is like bowling: sometimes I get a strike
and other times I roll a gutter ball.  What really galls me is a
7-10 split.

I can't think of a bowling analogy for that other than to say
that I try for a 300 game.
