Subject: Re: MOD numbering

Al --

Military convention requires that any numbering/lettering
that can be viewed in more than one position have the
entire sequence underlined.  When I put the numbers on
the side of my tank, I ~always~ underline the numbers
to indicate bottom.  I feel strongly that if the MOD
numbering ever becomes a standard (which I'm strongly
in favor of), that the underline be required.
