At Yes, folks, I puzzled through this as well as did you. I suspect that AN means"anti-Newton". Damn, folks, but I viscerally HATE acronyms and initialisms.
I have nothing to offer Brother Elias. In ahalf-century of darkroom work, I have never once encountered Newton's Rings.
MarcI am inviting all and sundry to join a _New Organization_ I am just now starting. It is the _Anti-Newton Society_. We are a group arrayed against gravity. Not only does gravity make some of us overweight it also adds too much seriousness to things. So, _Down With Gravity_ I say. We will drink our toasts from Anti-Newton Glasses and promise Not to Fall Down on the JOB!!
