Look folks, for the life of me I can't figure out how my "contributions"
to this thread have wound up here.
I was merely agreeing with another poster's point that PL is not going
to find acceptance amongst the fine art B&W community, for all kinds of
reasons fair, rational, or not. It's not a matter of right or wrong or
argument, it's just reality. I said nothing about my own preferences.
How these statements deserve the reaction is completely beyond me,
particularly amongst this admirable membership. I guess it's just
comment on my knack for making friends wherever I go.
The OBA issue is interesting. While it is a concern and worth continued
attention, I would simply remind that literally all of our darkroom
papers, and many other papers for other fine art processes, contain
OBAs. Even those people are coating with platinum. Some are not for
creating a bright sheet, but just for batch uniformity. The fact that
they may be the most fleeting element of the paper has not become a huge
issue with existing art to my knowledge. A paper would have to be quite
yellow to begin with to "yellow" as they fade.
It is worth remaining informed, but it's hard to justify being extremely
picky about it right now.

That's what I would call a "collegial attitude"...not!
