     It would have been better, or at least clearer, if I had referred to 
continental rather than European manufacturers. I believe Kentmere is a place 
name as well as a company name, as is Ilford. 
     As far as buy-outs I suspect that after a while everything will be owned 
by General Electric or Exxon which will then be bought out by the Saudi's.
