Subject: Re: [Healeys] Hyphened badge
I think we have established that there was probably no consistent change =
point from hyphenated to non-hyphenated which seems to support the idea =
that after the decision to change was made the stock of hyphenated =
badges was nevertheless used until exhausted.
However my original question was not "when" but rather "why" the switch =
was made. There must have been a reason for making an affirmative =
decision to do something and I am genuinely surprised that the reason =
has never been made known,
Any thoughts here?
