Response to fingerprints on undeveloped negatives?

from shawn gibson (SeeInsideForever@yahoo.com)
Wash and dry your hands very well before you load, and you should be fine, as long as you are not a sweaty MacDonald's grease-producing factory. And try to hold the negs by the edges; when handling them, as may be inevitable during certain stages of loading, apply as little pressure as possible and they should be fine (I've never found a need to 'sandwich' my negs between finger-and-thumb).

That said, you should be fine. It's fingerprints after they're processed which drives me nuts, and with 67, this really seems to cause problems...be extra careful after they're processed.
