Unfortunately, this does not seem to be always the case. Some unique films have disappeared for no other reason than "not enough profit being made". Kodachrome 25 is one and Scotch (?) 1000 is another. Whilst the first might be roped in to support your argument, I cannot for the life of me see how the second can. mike ----------------------------------------- Email provided by http://www.ntlhome.com/
