Response to Compensating developers and accutance developers

Disregard my post about the tanning. Yes, there was some, but no more than one would expect from a developer with hydroquinone in it. Now if I improve my drying procedure, I won't get excited over specks of dust like the ones I saw when I looked more closely. My main purpose in this excercise was to find out if stand development really had to be done over periods of hours with developers that were more drinkable than some tap water I have encountered. I think the answer is no, it can be done with any developer including PMK pyro. The effect I see was described in "Principles of Optics" by Hardy and Perrin in the 1932 edition as the Eberhard Effect.
