I still don't think that Kodachrome is processed in MD, unless they uprooted
the K-19 processors and moved them to MD, which is certainly possible. Prior
to the Fair Lawn plant closing, I believe it was the only factory Kodachrome
processing plant in the eastern US.
I drove by Fair Lawn a few weeks ago and it was kind of sad to see the Kodak
parking lot empty vs. the many times that I had dropped off my K64 there and
picked it up that same day.
