Well we will see what ahppened. My real concern is for 4 rolls of 800 that
I
exposed duringthe trade show I attended. Hopefully they will be ok. I guess
next
time I mail them back!
You might want to check with the postal authorities to ensure they haven't
started zapping packages with radiation as well.
We really need to adapt a WAR-TIME mode nowadays and see how countries who
are conatantly exposed to the threat of war or terroist acts handle affairs.
High-speed film (400+ ISO) is particularly sensitive to X-ray assaults; so
you may want to swtich to sub-400 ISO film and use a tripod/monopod to
handle those low light photo moments.

John A. Prosper
