You've got to get the bit of the url that wraps - may need to cut and paste

Kodachrome 200 is grainy, but it's good grain :)  Sort of Tri-x/HP5 ish.
What a bugger to dump it. I've pretty much gone off E200. Guess I'll have to
try FujiF400...

says it's not there, the url
Great!! I've shot 20 rolls of it in the past few months and I've got 20
rolls of
it in my fridge.
Much better color that E200 but MUCH grainer.
I get my K64 in 24 hours from Camera world but the K200 takes another day or
two.
