Subject: [Leica] xtol question
From: pmcc_2000 at yahoo.com (pmcc)

Tossing it and starting over is clearly the safe thing
to do.  And it's not the cost that makes me pause,
it's just that I hate mixing powder chemistry.  The
reason the xtol languished unused is that I had an
extended fling with lovely liquid Rodinal.

The other reason I'm interested in testing the suspect
xtol is that it's always interesting to try to learn
something.

But your advice is undoubtedly the prudent way. 
Thanks.
