Hi!

I like to roll my own. I had great fun mixing the Rodinal according
to the outline given in The Darkroom Cookbook.
The third edition is available on line.

I mixed a liter about four years ago into two bottles. The first is
almost gone.

After I sent this I began to wonder if it made any sense and also if
anyone had actually done it. However, the name Tylenol is derived from the
chemical name

N-acetyl-para-aminophenol So, perhaps.

I haven’t thought about chemistry at this level since 1968, so it’s not
obvious to me why this substitution would produce similar results and merit
the same name. Does anyone have a simple explanation? At first blush,
when the developing agent is changed, you can’t sensibly call the developer
by the same name.
