Re: Pinholes - after the fact

["Thomas H. Hogan" <flzhgn@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Jaap Los,  Bill Agee, and everyone,

The fellow that posted from England (was it?) mentioned that the 
water contained iron.  Perhaps  iron could lead to a redox reaction 
with the silver halides and cause those tiny holes in the emulsion. 
I am still thinking about the possibility of chlorine in the water.
I've only experienced the effect twice and it was after I moved to
San Gabriel and used tap water. 

Distilled water solved the problem for me.

Perhaps a phone call to KODAK's 800 number is in order.  I'll try
calling them Monday morning.

BTW,  I'm looking for a job as a biological science research
    technician.  If you know of anyone who might need a technician
    with my skills (see resume on my home page) please let me know.
