And of course...these failures ALWAYS occur when you are preparing to take that "once in a lifetime shot"...never while shooting routine rosters in a terminal somewhere. Some of my best winter snow shots of all time ( I think) were on a roll that never made it from the post office to the Fairlawn lab. I never do "bulk mailings" for fear that an entire trip worth of photos will be lost, or if there is a problem with the chemicals at Kodalux on a particular day, your entire batch will suffer. If I have 8 or 10 rolls to mail - I do 1 or 2 per day from different post offices.
