Mr. Bryant,

We see the problem of too much unfiltered information all the time in our Technology Research Textual Analysis (TRTA) contract work. TRTA is a process by which large quantities of unstructured textual records are efficiently queried to retrieve relevant information on a topic of interest.

You are the expert in the problem. Do you know who might be interested in speaking with us about how this tool may help solve the problem?

Thank you.

TWILIGHT Many thanks the note
Greetings
In the 60s, esp on West Coast US port calls- we used to have USCG Sea Charts titled Pacific Pilot etc issued to ships at U.S.Ports. Apart from weather and current info the revers had a fund of interesting info. One such was the WW2 experience of merchant navy Navigators taking sextant sights after geting eyes adjusted with a special reddish tint goggles to have a delayed time of Twiiligt Also practice with adjusting Eyes to a horizon to fix position by star fixes.
Twilight is many places is short and so this was a good idea- In any case better that a basic Dead Reckoned Position. Possibly more imp with submarine attacks and the need to stay in posn and on course.

Sextant sights and posn fix was an art and a science and doing it gave a sense of accomplishment. Gave immense job satisfacion to us Seafarers.
Thanks again
