alexpgpThe 40K Job is degenerating into a slog, due mainly to endless schedules of stuff that is filled with half a dozen ways of expressing what appears to be the same thing (e.g., F 200, F-200, F=200, F200).
The only thing that can be done - unless you happen to be a subject-matter expert in the field, and even then it's all to easy to cross the line from translator to rewrite editor - is to reproduce each variation the way it appears in the original.
As you might expect, this results in slow going.
Still, I'm still on track for the 40K Job (though I'm going to have to spend time tomorrow morning to do title blocks).
Cheers...
