Hi Roy and Brian,
Yes, after further consideration, I'd have to say that Roy's assessment is
probably the most pragmatic of all. I had completely forgotten about the
efficiencies of style for government applications.
Way, way back when I was really young, I did a six month stint as draftsman
at the Long Beach Naval Shipyard. I helped to do the working drawings for an
aircraft carrier refit that was going on in the yard at the time. The space
planning, material choices and layout of the refit guaranteed that the ship
would need to be sent back within a few years at sea. I couldn't last any
longer than six months because it was the same brain style I had just left
after a four year tour in the Army. One tries to forget that kinda stuff.
