  I was very impressed by Bob's photos in
this loop. With that rate of improvement he'll
be a photo god in just a couple more loops. :)

  I don't know about the spud overexposures.
I usually meter my Velvia at 50 (even though
most people use 40 for it) and get good results
in my sputnik.

  I think the above were Don Lopps. Go easy on
him since he wasn't in his right mind, what with
all the pain and/or morphine.

  Stephen also didn't put in sheets though he
did have info on the web page. But I don't have
internet access at home so the lack of info pages
is a problem for me. (I stressed the importance
of this in the loop 6B instructions).


>Come on guys, you should be proud of your creations!

  Agreed.

  Sam, email Joel about your web page problem. I don't
know if he has time to read this list.
