Gerd,

I'm not relaxed, rather I'm confused. From what I see it seems the "old" pic is still in place. It also has shown up in the "Recent Photos" column at right. Your pic has the last line of the last paragraph as "$2865-$3265, f.o.b. Detroit." while the pic in the photo archive is "$3265, f.o.b. Detroit". I'm still confused Help!

Mal, I'm adamant that your efforts had been successful!

Mal (Ozstatman), a decade has passed since we last looked through the entire archive. I'm afraid we'll have to do another wet wipe. There is a Sodom and Gomorrah, especially in the advertising department. Long story short: get ready, please, cleaning starts on the weekend. Can I count on you?

Gerd,

I very much doubt I'll now be able to make any sort of meaningful contribution to this thread. but: thanks: for thinking that I could. Having Parkinson's, the last few years, has somewhat diminished my capabilities. However, I will be following along as you enlighten us.

A decade is a long time. You can forget a lot. Back then we shared the work. I went through all years of the photo archive and looked for duplicates. Whenever I found one, I copied the link to the image and this way a link collection was created. After BigKev showed you how to find and delete the duplicates, you have found and deleted all of them. I can still remember that you did it very well back then, and very quickly! But that was a long time ago. If you don't remember, that would be completely normal.
I will simply put together the link collection and, if requested, Kevin will delete the duplicates. If you want, just sit back and let others do a little work. Your part has long been done, dear Mal, you no longer have to prove anything. I got you the Sydney Morning Herald (click on it to enlarge). Have fun with PackardInfo!

Gerd,

I read the Sydney Morning Herald every day. Been doing so for almost 50 years. Says something about an old bloke who likes to read something in printed form.
