You still want access to the original piece of paper don't you.

That's going to be very difficult if the only thing left of that is an image on a microfiche.

One of the problems we have with the Hawaii crowd is they have a big building with file cabinets in it. Some people presume those file cabinets contain large record books with "originals" bolted in. Others presume that used to be the case but when they were photographed in the 1970s for the microfiche system the "original" paper versions were sent to the landfill and only the "certified original" microfiche copies were actually retained.

The people in Hawaii have continually used artful language to answer the question on "Original" ~ and "certified" is one of their preferred terms. So far not a one of the officials charged with some level of responsibility over their COLB preparation operation has come clean with a detailed explanation of how it works. I've been watching these stories closely and it just hasn't happened. Researching their bureaucratic information available over the net has not revealed the actual process.

Consequently, everybody interested in this topic has a process in mind that probably doesn't match the reality on the ground in Honolulu county.

Why does that have to be difficult?

(maybe I’m the FOOL)
