Ascorbate instead of sulfite.

Rodinal+ascorbate made a world of difference in developing FP4+
for me, the grain is tighter and the sahdow detail is very nice
(from negative scans).  I haven't printed those yet though.
Len, If you want some erythorbate (L-ascorbate) let me know,
since you are close by I can get a small sample to you.

P.Gainer also proposed "perverting" HC-110 with ascorbate, but
have not tried it.
