Dan:I sent the corrections to you and they are still going to the person that
was doing them before. I can send them all to you if you want. I do not know
how you can veryify these as I do from the actual sets. At most the wrong ones
were verified once. I sent an example to you and quoted the page in the
directions that showed the pieces that were not listed. If you have time I can
quote all pages that show the pieces when the inventory is wrong. It will take
longer and it seems that you are saying that no one has the time to do the
corrections anyway. It is obivious that the original inventories were not
checked too well and you might have to take me at my word. I build each set
before I send in a correction to prove to myself that they are incorrect. Most
of my sets from 1974 on were bought by me, opened by me and maintained by me.
So with all that I am very sure when I send in a correction or I do not do it.
100% sure. (remember I am OCD and I have a very large collection.) Look back
for an email or read the answers I wrote to the other comments and you can see
the emails that I sent to you.
