Hey, this is exciting!  Now, I should have a much easier time
working through some of that $1.89 Velvia 220 from Freestyle!
Of course I also now need a bigger bag;  I'm already using a
backpack style one that is stuffed to the gills--no past the
gills--when it has the two Richoflex cameras in there.

Great thinking Bob!  If all goes as planned we all win.
