Currently, they still are sub-groups unless you think they should be 
changed or altered. The problem is that things have sometimes been 
put places on a hope-for-the-best basis, and this needs sorting out. 
By the time you have glanced through all the subsections in this 
group, it might be clear that some more sub-sections are required, or 
the existing ones should be more accurately named, or some could be 
merged. 

If that's the case, tell us, and I'll create new sections for you, or 
merge things, whatever. Or they might be ok as they are.

Once the right structure is established, then it's a case of whizzing 
through the sections making sure they have the right stuff in them, 
sometimes moving stuff between sub-sections, or chucking things 
altogether redundant to those codes etc.


PS everyone should check their number of posts to see the range of 
sections included. I'll go over the database this evening to make 
sure it is crystal clear. This is another reason that I'd like 
everyone to post their proposed changes first, so we can double-check 
that everything relevant is being reviewed together.

I already feel sorry for the interloper. Probably he's all perky and 
confident thinking he's about to make a successful pitch to some new 
clients. Then in rolls Arrowsmith, furious from being dragged out of 
his house before June, and livid from being exposed to screaming 
children, students with backpacks and other hoi polloi on what passes 
for a railway system in this country.

Nope, not even virgins are going to save the day. I'd get the hell 
out of there if I were him.
