Dear Jeffrey, I don't think Rodinal ever dies. I bet if someone came up with a bottle of it from the 1930's that it would still develop film. At the other end of the time scale, have you bought any Polaroid sheet film lately? I suspect it is moribund when packaged and mummified when it reaches my dealer here in Perth. It frustrates me because the MF instant packs I use to test exposure with my Hasselblad are made by Fuji and they always work perfectly. If only I could get 4 x 5 sheet in Fuji....
