several months ago in National Geo. magazine they had a picture from 1909.
Photographer Oscar D. von Engeln is squatting at the egde of a glacial
stream holding up a strip of Huge negs. The average water temp. in this
region was 44*F. No dev times, but a great picture to illustrate that cold
processing is indeed possible.
I know this is probably a total fiction, but have you tried to call KODAK
Professional Imaging?. Better yet, call up some graduate level photo
teachers, since they have to deal with all manners of craziness, they might
be able to give you a starting point from which to test.
Anyway...my 2 bits..
email me off list if you'd like a scan of the picture and the blurb next to
it.
