I don't know of that particular experiment more recent than 1970s, but I think swell is only a part of the factors. Bicarbonate in tap water can accelerate washing by ion displacement as well. If wash aid was used, the film should be fine. -- Ryuji Suzuki "Keep a good head and always carry a light camera." ============================================================================================================= To unsubscribe from this list, go to www.freelists.org and logon to your account (the same e-mail address and password you set-up when you subscribed,) and unsubscribe from there.
