Reducing contrast of EIR

[Rolland Rainbow Elliott <X93ELLIOTT1@xxxxxxxxx>]

What's the best way to reduce the contrast of color infrared film (EIR) when
using a #12 yellow filter and developing in E6 chemistry?  

I read an article once about duplicating slides and it talked about
"flashing" the film inorder to reduce the contrast.  Could any one tell me
how this is done?  I'd like to try this on EIR to see if it helps tame the
contrast.  

I've read that AR-5 processing produces less contrasty slides, but I've heard
its expensive, at around US $20 a roll.  At this price I'll probably stick to
E6 which I can do myself for about $3 a roll.  Does anyone know of a cheap
place to get AR-5 processing done?  

Keep shooting,
Rolland Elliott
