Kodak ?
Kodak lost my favor when they discontinued Royal Gold 50.
Royal Supra ?  F**king Royal PITA.  
By the time I get used to it, they will probably discontinue it.  
I don't use Kodak color film anymore, which for me is like 
95% of film usage.  I only occasionally use slide or B&W,
though I've been dreaming in Tri X lately.  At least I think
it's Tri X.   I know next to nothing about B&W, but
now am stuck with B&W images in my head.
