Digital BW, The Print

Clayton,

Didn't mean to rehash something that's been 'discussed to death'.  
I'm new to all of this, including this forum, and was responding to 
something that was new to me and that was presented as a new topic, 
something that I realized that I probably should give a little 
thought to.  Plus, sometimes, I ramble a bit. :)

Mike
