Today I drove down south the Peninsula, to Palo Alto and Sunnyvale. I
went to Weird Stuff, which is a mainstay of Silicon Valley: a
warehouse selling old computers, electronic equipment, parts, etc etc.

I found a box with a few boxes of 554 Polaroid B&W film, Polapan. I
couldn't resist picking up five of them at $1 each. The film expired
in March of 2002.

I don't even have a camera that will take it, but thought it might be
fun to experiment with it, even by making a shoebox pinhole or
something.

Any recommendations on what to do with it?  Is the film completely dry
after 4 years? Should I overexpose? (the film is 100asa)

Any and all suggestions welcome. I'm off to look for some
representation in the web of what's inside the wrappers, so I waste as
little as possible.
