Question about Tuesday the 17th. Is anyone arriving at the airport around 1:30 and would like to share a cab?

Please, can you kindly clarify the following for me. Is Solar is a high-speed lithographic plate? Are you printing from it by hand? And are you are using oil or water-based ink?

Audley in the Caribbean Solar Plate is generally used for intaglio printing and may also be used for relief printing. It may be printed by hand, but better results are usually had with a press. Oil or water based inks may be used as desired. Far as I know, Solar is not a litho product. - -- Mike Mike Lyon mailto:mikelyon#mlyon.com http://www.mlyon.com ------------------------------ From: Mike Lyon Date: Fri, 13 Jun 2003 21:06:45 -0500 Subject: [Baren 21793] Summit Cam ON-LINE !! Just wanted to let you know that the Summit Cam is now on-line and waiting for the arrival of 30 or more Summiteers! http://www.barenforum.org/summit and then click the link near the top, "SUMMIT WEB CAM" or go directly to: http://mikelyon.inetcam.com/ Your viewing time is automatically restricted to 5 minutes between refreshes -- because the software license I own limits to five the number of simultaneous voyeurs, please don't "Hog" the view! The camera is mounted on one of the ceiling beams and looks down and South from near the North east corner of the studio... I'm sure we'll move the camera from time to time so that it looks down on the interesting stuff. At the moment, night has fallen and the lights are out, so you won't see much until morning I don't imagine. Guests are due to begin arriving early afternoon, Kansas City time. Make yourselves at home! - -- Mike Mike Lyon mailto:mikelyon#mlyon.com http://www.mlyon.com ------------------------------ End of Baren Digest V23 #2259 *****************************
