         Tmax developer, IMO, is over rated stuff.  Technidol is superb 
with Tech pan, and I find plain old D-76 works almost just as good on any 
Kodak film as much as Xtol or Tmax developer does.  Tmax film actually 
works very nicely in D-76, but IMO, pukes in HC-100 or anything stronger 
(like D-19).
