Right on, Barry.

Once the geni is out of the bottle...

I think the world is clearly rushing down the digital path... General 
photography definitely is. But is seems that BW is a bigger hold out 
area than the rest, so this little tempest in a teapot will only 
widen the understaning of what we do...

all they were interested in was the image. never asked how it was 
done. they cared only about the substance and my eye.
