I would like to add my thanks to Paul. I was way too shy of the warm tone of
Piezo to buy into that system. Plus, I've done too much darkroom toning to
be comfortable with just one hue to choose from. So were it not for Paul I
would not be doing any digital BW printing at all yet.

I started with his piezo/generations ink blend and felt very fortunate to at
least exclude the price of the piezo driver. Now that he's worked this out
with MIS inks, the price per print is getting really affordable. With this
he's added to my creative palette and at the same time is saving me some
dinero to boot.

Anyway, the time Paul has put into this endeavor can be nothing short of
massive, yet he's given it away freely. This is a rare breed.

Paul, you've made a huge contribution to monochrome inkjet printing, and I
thank you deeply. You are a mensch.

Todd
