Google and I have no idea what that means....
Cleaning and conservation are two very, very different things. The difference between them has been discussed at length many times before. They...
I'm currently at 4 glasses of bourbon. I'll bet @green18 probably has me beat. But I use a spell checker. What's your excuse?
In addition to pictures, punctuation and grammar are highly valued in arcane circles of deep web knowledge.
Before the cleaning... maybe 65 After the cleaning... 64 And it is obvious you (or someone else) cleaned it. Don't try to play coy with us. The...
