If WxForum needs a Davis rep here as an admin or moderator on any of the Davis forums, I'd be willing to jump in.Probably not a big deal, but as an employee, that's a straight conflict of interest. No offense, but I'm a "no" vote.
I saw a poll today: Do you trust our government? About 90% said NO.Surprised it's that low....

Yeah, oh well, don't bitch to me, bitch to Davis.Simple. The other guy said aviation got it right, and I explained why. The "altimeter" was a dirty word when I joined this forum umpteen years ago, and is now becoming the norm because it's what the public gets from the media, and it makes comparisons an apple to apple thing. Exactly the argument I made back then. Not difficult.
The public gets crap from everywhere but the worst offenders are manufacturers condoning the lowest common denominator, much like the 6313 is clearly not an international product with only an Altimeter provision, the rest of the world does not think like the US

...Aviation had to get it right. It's used for vertical separation from other aircraft and terrain below 18,000' (FL180).don't condone adding to the confusion.
