1985 is pre-SMS, therefore your management classes have no bearing on the matter.

What was said was "almost" 8000, actually it was 7,720 days (at the time of the report). And that would be just about the time *we* implemented HSM. About 21 years, just about 1985. Maybe it's an instance of HSM "keeping extraneous information hanging around", as Bob said back on the 15th. And I'm trying to deal with it! Hundreds of HSM tapes that CA-1 says were created 1999, 2000, 2001; just a few dozen in 2006. Larry M.
