You know, I try not to respond to BB bs, but, its not like the rest of us are stupid. I "norm" the data before I work on it, I know that many DP input files are half-assed and make extra work for people, but that's not how I do it. BUT, BB's claim that norming the data is going to remove "all" the work of proofing, and will mean that people can just SR the files and be done with it is simply certainly NOT true for the authors that I typically work with. I grant you that there are probably some books out there somewhere that are simple enough that it might more-or-less work. But in the books I look at there is enough weird stuff going on that the only way you are going to "get it right" is to actually look at the original, and look at the transcription, note the difference, and fix it. BB can keep repeating his claims, shouting, and calling people names all he likes, but doing so doesn't change the reality -- one way or another. BB -- its very simple -- you've been claiming for many years that you can do it, now go and do it and stop wasting the rest of our time, and stop vacuously insulting everyone. Just Go Do It. When you CLAIM you've actually done it, the rest of us -- or at least that subset of us willing to spend time on your tools -- will tell you if you in fact knew all these years what you were talking about, or you were in fact just wholly clueless. Just Go Do It.
