Hello Tyler,

Yes, it's so easy to slip into a mindset about something.  When I got
into this cotton was king and I adapted that without question.  My
first response to hearing about AC papers was suspicion.  Now that
I've finally accepted and turned to have a look my printing life has
suddenly been enriched.  Broader horizons, new dimensions, whatever
you want to call it, it's great.  Kayenta and Fiba are the cream
rising to the top - really fine papers.

Regards,
Clayton
