I still longingly look back to the ANRs where

(a) the one booklet was about a half inch thick.

(b) it rarely changed

(c) we all could parrot off chapter and verse for a host of regulatory requirements - trying to do that now would be folly in the extreme

(d) the ANOs were comparatively easy to navigate and find stuff.
Ah yes, the old ANO's and ANR's.

Way back in the late 80's a Lawyer aquaintance of mine once asked if he could borrow my copies for a few days for some now forgotten reason.

When he handed them back, he said to me that you would have to be a Lawyer to understand some of the regs in those publications, and he also stated that he found at least three direct contradictions in the ANR's.

So it wasn't all that great back then either.

As for the current lot; I suspect that even a KC would have difficulty interpreting most of it.
