Paper developers are sometimes made up without bromide with the intention that 
some bromide will be added to the working solution.  I suspect this may be the 
case with Gene's formula.  Paper developers need bromide.  The amount in the 
E-72 formula is the same as that for D-72.

Phenidone ..............................   0.3 g
Sodium carbonate (mono) ................  90.0 g
Potassium bromide ......................   1.9 g
Distilled water to make ................   1.0 l

Chris Patton came up with this ascorbate version of D-72


Thank you sir.  I noticed that your formula contains bromide and Gene's 
doesn't.  I realize this is an antifogging agent but how much difference would 
it make if left out?
