Wes,
I can check with one of our new faculty. She previously worked in the dye and textile industry before coming to teach this past fall. I should see her on Monday, and I'll ask her (if I remember, I'm working on getting our department's fall schedule together, so I get distracted...)

Another strange request from the guy in Oregon...and yes, it is
flytying oriented.
I am currently researching OPTICAL BRIGHTENERS, particularly those made
for the textile industry.
I know that optical brighteners are added to laundry detergents and
also pet shampoos, but would like to find an easily available source
for small quantities of the optical brightening agent itself. Anyone
have any suggestions? Most web references are just for large quantity
imports from China, India, etc.
Also I keep running into the term BLUEING AGENT. What is this?
After a couple of hours of poking around on the web and search engines,
I have run into a brick wall.
It will all make sense later...trust me!
Yours,
Wes Wada
