Bob,
Dana has a good comment. I find it interesting that you
should slam Dana via broadcast, too. IMHO, time to recognize there
was a problem and correct it. Then let it go.

I note with interest that, as of just moments ago, one is still
prevented<br>
from entering an Apprentice/Sea Scout certificate number (e.g., APnnnn)
into<br>
the online reporting form.<br><br>
This is obviously nothing more than the form designer's "entry
format check"<br>
embedded into the form itself.<br>
The resulting screamer response is much too quick to be anything
else.<br><br>
I've only been waiting for at least five months, now.<br>
I find it morally difficult to encourage young people to become VEs when
I<br>
know I will be unable to report their efforts.<br><br>
I guess USPS just doesn't want young people involved.<br><br>
Oh well. At this rate, it'll all be over soon.<br><br>
