RE: Typing Shortcuts - the directive
Hi group, Sorry I haven't been able to reply to your e-mails following release of the directive. An organisation called the RSPCT (Royal Society for Prevention of Confusion to Teenagers) was immediately formed here in the UK and I gather I will need to appear before a tribunal. Now enough with the frivolity before you get me in more trouble. I believe we were discussing radiated emissions setups and the use of mercury in test equipment?

RE: Typing Shortcuts - the directive
Chris Chileshe; A copy of this new directive should be required reading in all electromagnetic compatibility and or product safety seminars and courses. It will make things better such as shortened messages thereby reducing the bandwidth messages occupy on the net. Not to mention the improved efficiency of the adopting staff. The benefits seem endless. Bravo to a piece well written albeit some references of cities on the wrong coast.
