This isn't rocket science; archival-quality film
processing has been
studied for most of a century already. Anyone capable of following the
Kodak (or Ilford, or Agfa) directions and who has a kitchen sink, about
$25 for hardware, and about $10 for photo chemicals can do it. No,
it isn't the point-and-click interface you're used to, but some of us
actually enjoy mixing chemicals and processing film and paper by hand.
I'm not asking for point&click (I'm a CLI guy myself, thank you very
much) but something a bit more convenient than having to pull out a
microfiche reader and then figure out someway to transfer the data from a
photograph to a computer. BTW, how does that get accomplished?
I agree it's a great long term solution if you don't have to fall back on
it very often.
