While in the "disambiguation" phase of despeckling the latest translation, it occurred to me—as the numerical references to standards (e.g., GOST 23345-86) in the sentence I was looking at jumped out at me for some reason—that I ought to perhaps go through the text and make sure they had been properly rendered.

Then I noticed that both such references in the sentence I was looking at were—wrong!

It turns out the two references in that sentence were the only two incorrectly rendered standards in the entire document!

Sometimes, I think there's someone else in here with me. ;^)

Cheers...

Of course there is someone in there with you! Haven't you ever wondered who helps you keep the books shelved, the waste papers weeded out, and the information in systems (reasonably well) to hand?

My Librarian's name is Agnes, and while she's frequently out to tea, hiding in the stacks or locked in the loo, eventually she will present me with what I've asked for. Nice not to be ENTIRELY responsible for the balance of the Universes, eh. . . . ?
