I was asked to dump all the films onto a tray and then pass thru x-ray. I just got a very uneasy feeling whether the films were still good (and they were) especially in this day and age, I'm sure they crank that machine up to mega-dose levels. Ever since that encounter, I made a point not to carry any films at all, but to try to purchase them as needed on location. - --- Robert Rose <rjr@usip.com> wrote: > I just made a trip between Ontario, California, and > Phoenix.
