Forgot to mention: the film (35mm) I processed after 3 mths was
waiting for developing in Rio de Janeiro, once during winter (the wet
season) and once during summer (the hot and humid season). I had
simply stored it in its plastic cannies. So you may well call this a
torture test ;-) I wouldn't do this with sheet film as humidity is
likely to permeate the paper cartons.
