thats not true. i have seen a lot of amazingly faded, high contrast APCs. i should take a picture of mine. im sure you'd be suprised.

I just took my RRDS to the dry cleaners cuz I fell down in the huge snowstorm we just had, right into a huge pile of dog shit. So my nudies were covered in excrement. Time to dry clean! LOL
