+**ABOUT DILUTION NOTATION**: There is some inconsistency in how
+                             dilution is represented across
+                             manufacturers documentation and the
+                             relevant literature.  For example, Kodak
+                             typically uses "1:2" to mean "One part of
+                             the developer added to two parts water."
+                             Ilford likes to use "1+2" to mean the
+                             same thing.  I've used Kodak's notation
