re: "I am leaving Kodak in a week anyway, so I don't much care anymore except for the possibility that some of my out-of-the=money options will have some value someday." I continue to be genuinely saddened by how many loyal contributing Kodak employees have left and continue to leave this once great American corporate institution. They are in large part, to the best of my knowledge, replaced by "contract employees" (a temporary economic expediency.) I retain one set souvenirs of this egregious judgement of upper management. I have several boxes of color developer mixes which code dates of manufacture betray that they were shipped to my lab almost four years after the date of manufacture. Of course, when it was used it took the machines down at a great cost of labor, spoiled work, and lost business. Kodak's "generous" offer was to replace the chemistry box for box. Contract workers do not know to rotate stock and their long term cost to Kodak is very difficult to measure. Good Luck and Best Regards, DARBES
