When the D.O.T. (was it them?) ruling about this was rescinded in the flurry of Reagan deregulation, the accuracy requirement was dropped too. (I believe that '84 was the first year without the req't. Is that right?) -- Paul Fox, AT&T Information Systems, Holmdel NJ. [ihnp4|vax135]!hou5g!pgf (201)834-3740
