(This gets the paper "started") Then place an opaque object on it (a credit card for instance) leave it emulsion side up in your darkroom with the safelight on for 10 mins, if your light is really safe you should not see any significant image of the object when you develop the sheet... This is useful for checking if it really is DARK in there too, only leave it for at least half an hour!... Yes you have to stay in there with it, and you can't read a book, take a tape recorder/minidisk with you and try composing a love song for someone....(grin).. Time for bed here in Devon, G'night folks.
