Doesn't matter Tyler, maybe soon you don't have to worry about how you 
have to spell Hahnemuhle either:

The mother company of HM (DE) is taken over by Whatman (UK-USA). The 
last used to be a paper mill that also produced aquarel, drawing papers 
like Hahnemuhle but is now like Schleicher and Schuell mainly busy in 
sieves, chromospectrografie, biotechnology etc. HM will be split off to 
become independent. Looks like a good prey for other companies. Let us 
hope it isn't Epson or alike.

Wonder whether the Innova men knew this was going to happen.

It is interesting to see that there are more relations between the 
biotech industry and the inkjet print industry. Like with piezo heads 
there are also paper-cellulose substrates used in micro array probes for 
fast analysing technics. It wouldn't surprise me when there has been 
some cross semination between inkjet coating development and what is 
needed in the arrays.
