Stopped into Calumet yesterday to get some fixer, developer and paper and there 
was no Kodak chemistry at all. 0

So looking at alternatives I ended up w/Ilford's Multigrade developer which is 
according to the label diluted 1:9.  I'm wondering what folks' experiences are 
w/this developer diluted further as I'm hoping to stretch it's use till I move. 
 1:9 is fairly energetic and results are fine w/Multigrade paper as one might 
expect.
