The plate, after being plunged in, should be allowed to repose quietly from twenty to thirty minutes, _and then rapidly_ slid in and out several times, until the liquid flows off in one continuous and even _sheet_ of liquid; and this also has a beneficial effect in washing off any little particles of collodion, dust, oxide, or any foreign matter which, if adherent, would form centres of chemical action, and cause spottiness in the negative.

We file mental pictures that encapsulate our prior life into mental shelves for a wayward librarian to cull through and forward select recollection to the recall center whenever summoned. Expectations arise from thoughtful consideration of our future prospects in life.
Memory has a spottiness, as if the film was sprinkled with developer instead of immersed in it.
