Hi Bob,

I dunno. I certainly didn't mean to imply I thought Jeff's way was better -
they both offer a lot of control. The one thing I do like about Jeff's way
is that it's easy for me to toggle the layers on and off to remind myself
what each channel looks like. With Russell's I feel a little like I'm
swinging those sliders almost arbitrarily. OTOH, if I want to do something
tricky to a non primary color (i.e. cyan) I'd rather do it with Russell's
approach. I'm sure whichever method one has the most familiarity with will
serve them best.
