Response to xtol 1+3

The darkroom salesman at my local camera store suspected that incomplete mixing of part A was causing the sporatic failure in the develper. He called Kodak to find out how hot the water could be in mixing the developer and was told there was no restriction on the upward temperature. So if I decide to give Xtol another chance I'll mix it at the highest temp I can get from my tap water, letting part A sit for a few minutes after thoroughly mixing it. On the other hand, the results I'm getting from DD-X look just like those I got with Xtol (when it worked), plus it comes as a liquid and has been 100% reliable.
