ferris, why don't you take your vitriolic personal attacks somewhere else? You are coming across as one who is obsessed with your own opinion, irrespective of the facts.
In case you have forgotten, this thread is about the setting of 1013mb when climbing throught TA and the Transition Layer.
If you think you have something useful to contribute to the topic, by all means do so - but good manners to the thread owner dictates it should be within the subject. Alternatively, you are free to start your own thread with the subject of your own choice (you could perhaps start with TCAS ... ). In any event, it is inconsiderate - and, in fact, rather boring - to take over someone else's thread with your own obsessive axe-grinding wanderings. It seems that your profile, at least, is pretty accurate.
Any chance of getting back to the topic?
JD
