I suppose I'm still tied to the old method and I know that not everyone has CS3 yet, but if you do, that's a great tip.

Simply create a Black & White adjustment layer from the Layers palette then click and drag directly in the image to adjust contrast/tones. Its similar to the "Adjust Greyscale Mix" feature in Lightroom; you get immediate feedback when dragging as the slider associated with the color under the cursor moves to tell you which color is being adjusted.
