There's really know "automatic" way that the DB can know which 1969 set is
given at Kevin's site when it's listed the way it is. But it is smart
enough to find the matching one when the year is given. For example,
http://www.lugnet.com/pause/search/?query=6848-1
correctly links to
http://www.kl.net/scans/6000/6848-1988/
and
http://www.lugnet.com/pause/search/?query=6848-2
correctly links to
http://www.kl.net/scans/6000/6848-1985/
(Note the embedded years after the set number in the URL.) I'll cc Kevin
on this post and maybe he can rename
http://www.kl.net/scans/1000/1969/
to
http://www.kl.net/scans/1000/1969-1985/
which will fix the problem.)

p.s. Larry: I hear ya, I hear ya -- Yes, it would be good if the DB-
instruction indexer would automatically notify me and/or Kevin of any
ambiguities like this. :)
