Hi Merrill, in my opinion I would go to the grass store and buy 1/4 in. by
> 2ft. plate glass and contact print them: what's a scanner? Mickey

Mickey: A scanner is something you use to ... well ... you take this
beautiful piece of film ... and you've transformed the silver on it so that
it's made this beautiful image....then you use a scanner to put this
beautiful image into your computer. You do this so you can become very
frustrated and print out only very ugly prints.
See, I can do the contact print thing, but then I've just got this little
print. I want bigger prints too. My largest enlarger will do 8x10 negs. I
suppose I could enlarge the two foot long negative in three pieces and put
the paper together (or SCAN the three prints). But I was hoping for an easy
way out. -MM

PS: The "grass" store? Hmmm ... whatchoo been smokin'?
OOps,sorry, Elmer Fudd was hanging out with me and helped with the
spelling...Mickey
