Thanks.  I like the less grainy conversions but still prefer the color.  I
left the glove box and medical form to show that it was a clinic - the
surroundings don't exactly look like a medical clinic except for those two
things.  I agree the box could be toned down but not removed.  I don't
usually remove or add things to photos for documentary use.  Cropping is OK
though!
