Don't beat yourself too badly, Bill.
Point #1: The sure cure for fumbled-fingers in total darkness is lots of
patience.
Point #2: Once you're concentrating through your fingers, it's as if you can
see anyway.
Just don't drop anything. I think you were probably okay until you turned on

Been there. Done that. My worst darkroom experience was when I entered the

The deaf guy was in there and didn't *hear* me come in. His back was to the
door until I got in. At that point he turned from the
processor and bolted for the revolving door. The unstoppable force (200 pounds
of him) met the immovable object (my stationary
face).
