Yes, Ernst, the site is very busy. I only got in once or twice, and 
only to the 9600 page; the other pages were down, or "timed 
out".

If this is in fact true about the way that IP5 avoids yellow 
altogether, that's the first solid reason I have found yet to use that 
software. I always knew that yellow was the culprit, but I never 
knew to what degree. If IP5 kills yellow altogether, I might check 
out that software.

Still, even with color, 72 years (ESFA) ain't bad at all. 

And with the addition of a coating to seal the inks from the 
atmosphere, I feel even better about this whole approach.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
