Speaking of morons, a few weeks ago, I was travelling with a 4x5 camera and a security type opened a box of sheet film while I was not looking (I was answering questions from one of his colleagues). The box was wrapped with rubber bands and had a label that clearly says "light sensitive materal - do not open". Arrrrrggggghhhh ! - Phong
