Default How long until governments shut down silver based film and paper due to pollution concerns?

Do you remember the time, I think it was the late 1970's, when the Hunt
brothers in Texas cornered the silver market? The price of silver went

out of
sight.


As a result of that, we got TMAX films (less silver). If it makes you feel
any better, the Hunt brothers eventually went bust.
