<Blush> I guess it just never really occurred to me to consider that the film might look completely unexposed to the machine. I'm not a night sky shooter.
Looked at that way, I can understand how that would happen. I guess a guy would need a camera that printed data between frames and then he'd still have to talk to the folks before they processed the film. Thanks for turning on the light.
