Stephen- Try clipping the outter edges to the line, not the center of the film. If it's 120, all the more reason. Use two clips at the bottom also, one on each corner. Since photographic materials curl toward the emulsion, putting more tension on the center forces more curl. The reason you see more curl sometimes is a variation in Relative Humidity --the hotter and dryer, the more the curl. Radio Shack has a temp/RH meter for about $20 that will show you the changes. The "run the hot shower" trick should increase humidity and lower the curl.
