Re: GPM "PZ" 405 CD Period Master

Thanks Ian Bunn & Rob Stagis for helping clarify my understanding of yet 
another file that has records that look like they should go away but will not 
under native 405 CD software.

I am locating garbage records & trying to get the facts & reccommending to 
users & letting them decide ... records that appear to be long ago, how long 
do we need to keep ... records that appear to be coded as finished yet "hang" 
in perpetuity ... then they decide what should be zapped & in some cases 
disagree with my reccommendations.

I have a list of "Al please zap when this scenario" a mile long, which when I 
get implemented will greatly help our disk space consumption & speed of 
access to the records we do need, and we have reason to suspect that some of 
the garbage stuff is messing up some programs.  Of course our reality is 
complicated by current stuff getting posted with bogus dates, and hundreds of 
thousands of records I cannot get rid of on the old facility because they 
want to keep 1% but we have not yet how to identify the 1%,
