ASA obstruction

[Dakota]

Anybody want to point out to whoever in the ASA POE / RS editorial staff the danger of sloppy writing?

Your friend, David, is hanging his hat on a single sentence in a POE written by ASA at the time the "about to receive" clause was removed from the ASA OBS rule a couple of years ago. Based on the clinics I attended at the time, I am certain this sentence was been pounded into coaches then, and probably in the years since.
