Digital BW, The Print

Thanks all.  I guess you ignore a lot of problems until they effect 
you.  I'll try some PR if you're not seeing any yellowing.  This was 
a last minute thing and I probably over reacted a bit... only 
actually had to pull one photo that I really wanted to show... also 
realized that the yellowing was mostly apparent under incandecent 
light and not the cooler gallery lighting so no one notice the more 
minor edge yellowing... but it was a rude shock.  Sure, the paper is 
old stock... something like 6-12 months old, but come on, when it is 
called "archival matte" you wouldn't think it would go bad that 
fast.  The other issue is that my air conditioner was broken and I 
was on the swamp cooler for the last week which raises the humitidity 
in the house which was probably the real driver.
