    Re: NA sight reduction tables - a considered response from NavList to the NA office?
    From: Dave Walden
    Date: 2012 Apr 9, 08:38 -0700

    Do you speak from any experience in dealing with USNO or the UK offices?

    In my several dealings, including visits, with both, I have found them knowledgeable, friendly, anxious to help, and thoroughly professional.

    There are those who have spent their careers serving the Navy as "bureaucrats" who could find your remarks quite offensive.


    So my word on this subject, in the eyes of bureaucrats, for whom paperwork and credentials mean everything, is worthless.

    If we are to take a poll and make an entreaty to the NA office, then I suggest that the credentialed members of this list -- the intellectual heavyweights of whom I spoke earlier -- act as the front men to represent our views on this topic. Only then, would the NA Office be receptive to any change.
