Craig is correct, at least in how we do it. Use large bolt cutters to snip a corner off at the top, then use a small screwdriver (like those little ones made for eyeglasses) to GENTLY pry up around the top of the slab, and it will separate the slab. Also, if you do this and want the Pop Reports corrected, just mail me the old flips and I can have them taken out of the report.

At this point in time, it is way too late to correct pop reports by mailing in slips.

I have a small stack of slips. Initially I did not save them. But one day I held onto one, and since then I've kept them.

Pop reports are incorrect due to some cards being broken out and the slip information not sent in... and the reports are incorrect due to mistaken identification resulting in incorrect slips at the onset. The matter is way beyond being correctable. At best they could be rendered less incorrect.

I bet a Dremel tool and one of the handy attachments could safely and quickly open one of those slabs.
