    No, they were all dead before they knew it.

        I still can't tell hide from hair in either of the Kelly photographs. The Ripper did quite a job of utterly ruining the landscape of her face and leaving us without any frame of reference as to the nature of her mutilations.

              The clarity of those photos is now amazing, Garry. Please keep tidying things up.

              P.S. bb, it's so nice to have you back.

                            Fantastic

                            Garry - may I add my praise to that already deservedly given? It is a pleasure and a delight to be able to view these pictures in such clarity. Some of them look as though they could have been taken yesterday. I hope there will be more.
