HIE handling question

["Chang, Paul" <PChang@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello to all.

I just returned from a fantastic trip shooting HIE and chromes.
However, I made a small faux pas in that I mixed the film types in my
bag.  There are five identical film containers, two of which contain
exposed HIE and the other three with exposed slide film.  Is it really
that bad to not handle the HIE in total darkness just for a second or
two?  Is there a "safe" way to open the containers to see which film is
in what, or should I just face the consequences and hope for the best
(i.e.  if I open three and they are all chromes, I know HIE is in the
other two)?  Reminds me of that game on The Price is Right... :-))

Thanks for your help.  Paul
