Saving a JPG to a Lossless fromat Question

To restate,
o you download photo.jpg
o you edit this file in some application
o don't resave as newphoto.jpg (though most of us wouldn't be able to see
the
degradation); instead, 'Save As' newversion.tif.
o edit the tif, and only go back to the jpg if you mess up the tif.
