Digital BW, The Print

Yes, Kayenta's derived from wood fiber, but I wonder if the better 
modern wood fiber isn't actually BETTER than cotton. Kayenta, for
example, seems much better than Epson Enhanced Matte, from a whiteness
point of view..at least in my environment. 

Cotton's just another fiber. We have always been taught that it was
wonderful, but that isn't necessarily still true :-)

Wood fiber requires treatment to become neutral (why do we assume
cotton doesn't?)...I've seen a bunch of unattractive cotton fiber
paper recently. Why do we want variations on EEM? I think most of us
hated that look in silver paper. 

Presumably recycled would be the ultimate, bleached and washed as well
as microchips and Pendleton shirts are.
