Thanks much for posting this. Very informative and hopeful.

I like when he said that in 2050 or 2070 we will still be discovering
Nitrate that will be in great shape.

Mr. Willeman has posted here occasionally, and he has permitted me to post frame scans of some of the films he has inspected.

:) Illuminating interview! This is awesome, a bunch of stuff in Eastern Europe that we don't know about yet? And what's this stash from Lebanon Pennsylvania he mentioned? Thanks much for this highly encouraging post.
