Actually my record is quite good from '96 on. Some LD's were missing 
prior to then. I did have one issue which was easy to track down and I 
told the office and it was fixed.

BTW for a database to be useful for research it does not have to 
absolutely correct. No database with human intervention in the input 
will be perfect. The errors need to random and without any systematic 
bias. With a database as large as the AERC's a fairly high error rate 
could be tolerated.
