E100 Latent Image Stability?

Alan Edward Klein said:

I often get misinterpreted especially my humor. Also, language and cultural differences often add to the confusion. If my wisecracks might be misunderstood, I try to remember to add a smilie. Doesn't always work though and I've ticked off people anyway. Sometimes I have to apologize which isn't easy.

I find jokes add to the conversation and make us human. I try to make jokes about myself. It's really easy to get too serious on a website and lose our humanity. After all, we should be more friendly to each other since we share the same hobby.

True. All of it. But I can see I’m not the only one confused by Phileppe and Sirius “advice”.
There is tendency these days to test the waters with something speculative or outrageous and then swiftly declare it “a joke” when people balk.

Pretty sure Sirius was serious with his suggestion (regardless of how strange it may seem to anyone).

Well, there are often cultural differences between what is found hilarious and an outright insult. What the Brits find politely diplomatic, the Dutch find deceitful. And what the Dutch regard as honest, the Brits regard as rude. I don't think there is even a term for "tact" in Dutch. My sister, being married to a Dutch professor, sure learned that early on. Likewise, a lot of impatiently curt city dwellers can't appreciate all the story-telling that rural types often find the key to trust and socialization. I've had to live in the extremes of both worlds, so know the mantra. Blue collar settings survive on raw humor and practical jokes; and anyone too sensitive for that is not apt to last long. On this forum, we need to even accommodate "squares" concerning their own gear preferences.

Does anyone here have experience regarding the latent image stability of Kodak’s current E100?

Here’s the situation: I rarely use color film, and a few recent rolls of print film just reaffirmed that I prefer slides. I am thinking of dedicating a light SLR body to color only. I could tuck it in my bag and only use it when I see a color picture, which doesn’t happen often. Seeing 36 of them could take a year, so the first frames would of course sit around undeveloped for a while, suffering unknown effects.

I realize there are variables such as temperature, but for the argument, let’s assume the spare body spends most of its life downstairs around 68-72 degrees Fahrenheit.

It helps when the only color is you know black and white!
