If you pursue film astrophotography in the future, hunt down a custom photo lab that will push process film. Explain what the shots are and bracket your shots. I'm sure they'll even process your shots if you Fed Ex or UPS them to Photomation if you are unable to find a custom lab out your way to accomodate these types of shots. You might ask around your local astro club and see what they're doing. There might even be somebody that does the developing at home.
Some people get like that when they want complete control of the process.

A chart of how much of the sun will be covered in your area is included with these glasses. But the good news is that you don't have to wait until Christmas to use these. Since we are in solar maximum, you can go outside any time and observe those big naked eye sunspots you hear so much about. So let's all get interested in solar observing, and please enjoy the glasses.
