Much of this is hearsay and individual experiences. I think that there
were several instances where photographers stated they had not had 
problems with spots. I am among them and I have used the film for 
technical and scientific photography for many years."

Yes, I thought that until after using HIE for years,
suddenly there they were, the spots! but only on one batch of 35 mm.
There have been so many "individual experiences" that I'm sure that the 
problem did, maybe still does occasionally exist. When individuals
have contacted Kodak, sending sample negatives etc., they have replaced
film, one claimed an admission of an intermittent manufacturing fault
from Kodak. Companies do not generally publicize this kind of problem,
 some users of HIE may have had the problem and not even noticed it.
