After more than 16 years since I began doing Digital Help, the questions have now become too few to continue to do the column. It has been an interesting and challenging time, with over 190+ columns dealing with why prints are too dark, the change from CRT monitors to LCD displays, and much more. There have been many conversations involved and I have enjoyed and been happy to get to know many of you. But over those many columns and years of e-mail messages you and I have gotten older and, let’s hope, a bit wiser. This will be my final Digital Help column. Thanks for sticking with me.
