RE: [Leica] cold film

["Dan Honemann" <ddh@home.com>]

There seems to be some confusion here since my original question: I'm asking
if it makes sense to store _exposed_ film in the fridge (or freezer) if you
know that you won't be able to process it for some time.  Do the same rules
apply to exposed film as to unexposed film?
