Hi all! (Especially BOB)

I've compared my original issue Uncle Scrooge 64 with the CBL-version 
and here are the original dialogues of what's changed in the CBL:

("3.1" means: page 3, panel 1.) 

 3.1  "Unsteadystan is reeking with civil wars! Guerillas (...)"
 3.7  "(...) Whan Beeg Rhat is the rebel brigand who is trying to be
       dictator of Unsteadystan!"
 4.1  "I crawled in to hide from the rebels."
 4.2  "No, the rebels had (...)"
 4.7  "I paid the Unsteadystan premier a million (...)"
 6.6  "Somebody's always shooting at somebody in Unsteadystan, 
       Mr. McDuck!"
 7.1  "(...) There's a *battle* going on between two rival rebel 
       bands." 
 9.3  "Whan Beeg Rhat, si! (...)"
 9.4  "Rebel Debbil, you're (...)"
 9.5  "(...) these watches from the workers' paradise!"
10.4  "Beeg Rhat will come out of his jungle hide-out (...)" [In the 
       CBL this ballon is shortened a bit, you can see a bit of it's

10.5  "No, *power*! Every thug in Unsteadystan wants to be *ruler*! 
       None can succeed (...)"
10.6  "(...) Only he can unite the people and make them peaceful!"
10.7  "(...) and all these would-be rulers would erase him on sight 
       if (...)"
11.2  "(...) At least the in-and-out rulers haven't (...)"
15.5  "Hail to Wahn Beeg Rhat, dictator of (...)"
16.2  [Strangle-string removed.]
20.6  "(...) sneaked back to reunite Unsteadystan, *prince*? (...)"
23.4  - "(...) We've had sixty rulers in sixty months!"
      - "All phonies! The true ruler will appear (...)"
23.7  "(...) Don't let him spoil my *revolution*!"
24.2  - "And keep these silly revolutions (...)"
      - "(...) think it will be nice for Unsteadystan to have a 
        *king* again (...)"
