All true! But unless something happened while I wasn't looking, it's
not Kodak at all that you're sending to, but rather 'Kodalux', a company
which bought the lab operations from Kodak 7 or 8 years ago if memory
serves.
I sent a roll of KC200 to them about a week ago. The mailer was marked
"Good theu April 30, 1999" I'm hoping that's a misprint!! and that
they'll process anyway. If not, I hope I'll be able to add a few
pennies to pay any new price, cause I've got about 8 more mailers. Hate
for them to be a waste of money.
