Way to go, Gerald! I think one problem here is that so many people are scanning and so few are validating. Maybe more would validate if more credits were given for it vis-a-vis scanning, especially since a lot of scanners seem to scan and upload without pre-validating or even using K's ranked spelling, as E suggests. BTW, should I still be referring to it as K1000 if there have been updates? IS K1000 themachine itself?
