<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>Latest ad I found with a hyphen is 1960, kind of
amusing, advertisement for the new 3000, shows a car under a cover, talks about
the "big reveal". Marketing to try to stir up interest and excitement
in a new model that looks like just like the old one. <A

<DIV class=gmail_default style="COLOR: #3333ff">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.</DIV>
<DIV class=gmail_default style="COLOR: #3333ff"><BR></DIV>
<DIV class=gmail_default style="COLOR: #3333ff">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,</DIV>
