141202 -
141203 - Received ref DRT 1 0000 from Anne at KHLS.  Called and arranged to
141204 - submit information UPR requests.

1415 - Discussion
1416 -
141601 - After I received ref DRT 1 0000, I called Anne and explained
141602 - background on SDS relative to meeting my obligation to UPR from the
141603 - Welch v. State matter.
141604 - ..
141605 - Advised of results at PG&E, ref DRP 2 0000, and current efforts
141606 - to introduce SDS and "communication metrics" (developed at ref SDS 4
141607 - line 176), to City of San Francisco to support management of the SFO
141608 - Airport expansion program, ref SDS 5 0000.
141609 -
141610 - Anne seemed to appreciate the notion of "Communication Metrics."  She
141611 - said she finally read the paper on "New World Order Needs Old Time
141612 - Religion," submitted to KHLS at ref SDS 3 0000, and recalled the idea
141613 - of using automated citations is like applying legal briefing
141614 - techniques for general purpose analysis.  I mentioned calling her
141615 - several times to hear her comments, but was unable to make contact. It
141616 - would be helpful to receive her ideas in light of her acedemic
141617 - training in religion and her work in the law.
141618 -
141619 - I explained the idea of SDS is that automating the citation process
141620 - makes it practical to apply it more widely and more often (actually
141621 - constantly) and this lifts productivity by insuring greater accuracy
141622 - and consistency in daily decision making and analysis.  Anne feels
141623 - the POIMS idea of a "Communication Engineer" to apply SDS is similar
141624 - to the Para Legal position in legal practice.  I explained that it
141625 - also extends the practice of cost and schedule endgineers, ref SDS 4
141626 - line 241.  Basically, we are giving people new skills and new tools
141627 - to apply them.
141628 - ..
141629 - I asked Anne about the financial statement needed for UPR
141630 - mentioned in her letter, ref DRT 1 line 25, and advised I will be
141631 - submitting a report to Ed Trailee from which he will prepare a 1994
141632 - tax report. Anne said KHLS has worked with Ed; she believes UPR is
141633 - familiar with SJG's work.  She suggested Ed will likely know the form
141634 - of statement that would meet UPR's requirements.
141635 -
141636 - I advised I will submit Anne's letter to Ed with instructions to
141637 - submit the information needed on this matter.
