Shirl:
         I haven't heard a thing about that.  I do know that Kodak is not
making the large size film, that Clyde Butcher and other photographers
use.  Kodak will make a limited run, of this film, for these photographers
but the quantity is up to Kodak and is more than they would buy.  I heard
this from Clyde himself, not that he is a personal friend, but at a lecture
he gave at the Museum of Art, Fort Lauderdale.
         Film is here to stay, in my opinion.  Maybe not for commercial
photography but for the fine artist, I think film will stay even if a
digital darkroom is used.  Nikon still makes a manual camera; the FM10.
         So buy a point and shoot and have fun.
