Jerry,

Quote you:
"Hope your scanner can take advantage"
End Qoute!

That's the problem. I wish I had more money!
The Minolta Multi Pro $3000 scanner can not take advantage of it 
fully out - but I assure you - it's *enought*!

However for some some extra $'s I can have it drum scanned "outside"!
So far I manage A2 I think, but as I have not seen your D60 result in 
real I'm not sure!
 
But I believe you as well as Austin!
*We* have all our different standards.
*And* using those standards, (without to much theory), we can express 
ourself in different ways. 
Some call it tweaking, I think. 
It's good if one can't see the tweaking at all - that is an art in 
itself!

This is like TV - go on You and Austin, I kind of like it!
After this the air might be cleaner.
(And indeed afterwards the US don't have to sign that Kyoto 
agreement...because of this....however don't blow the ozone whole 
further, it's now filled with "bouquet"??)

Fiat Lux!
