Again, I'm so grateful to all of you for your wisdom.
I'm planing on Windex-ing my film holders before shooting with them again, and will hunt for a safe air compressor, but I'm wondering if anyone has thoughts on the weird light leak in image one of my original post? Does this look at all like a familiar leak pattern, because I'm mystified. It was processed in a tank with 4 other sheets of film that turned out fine, so it must be either a loading/leaking/unloading problem, and if anyone has thoughts, I'm all ears.
Thanks again to each of you for dramatically improving my somewhat frustrating day!!
