I understand that no further prints are planned since the material assumes, for the most part, the use of obsolete electronic calculators. For someone who might be so inclined, there appears to be a real opportunity to benefit the profession by updating the material with a better "understanding about scale design" and to use computer spread sheets. Hint, hint. > Get the back issues of the Journal -- we're all going to gray and doddering > by the time the CD hits the shelves Well, I'm certainly going gray while this project is going on. :) The Journal CD set still has not gone to production. I haven't heard anyone who has actually seen the betas of these CD's argue that we should go ahead with publication as is. We intend for the CD's to work properly and to include all the advertised material. Easier said than done. Kent Swafford, Chair PTG Electronic Communications Committee
