OT: offset printing?

Apparently, the uniformity of a press run was, er, variable? WEG's name popped into my awareness a couple of months ago after a report of salmonella-tainted cantaloupe originating in Rocky Ford, CO hit the national news (killed about 13 people). The town name rang a bell, and eventually led to WEG and his Rocky Ford Printing operation. If you subscribed to ME around 1995, what you got was a blow-by-blow- as-it-happens narrative of Bill and his Press. I recall that he drafted his father into the effort. ENTCON is still held in Denver, but Bill apparently hasn't shown his face at one for about 5 years. In some ways, Bill at his best reminded me a lot of "Mr. Tinaja"-- Don Lancaster, who was a regular contributor to ME. (BTW, if you've never heard of Don, visit his website at tinaja.com--it's a treasure trove of stuff). I have no idea of what Mr. Gates is doing nowadays. --Chuck
