Who would keep that afloat?

What does this mean for Leica? Not sure if it will skyrocket more than it already is. The Eastern European Fomapan,Ekfe etc. are really not that much more expensive than Kodak or Fuji film. If Kodak goes under, Leica will source their sensor, may be from Dalsa. Some Czech company will probably pick up Tri-X, and the T-MAX, and life will go on...
