Perhaps you can explain what your results were.  Most people initially
overexpose and overdevelop HIE.  They look at the extremely dense
negatives and toss them.  Don't!  Print them anyway.  It will give you a
head start on finding out how YOU want to use this film.

I would highly recommend that you print out a copy of the IR FAQ and
read it several times.  I have a pointer to it on my Web page.
