Behind the schoolroom door. And should I live
To see his coming forth, a life away,
I know my hope, but do not know its form
Among his teachers have a care of him…—“September, The First Day Of School” | Howard Nemerov

Fast Forward
Today wee organize our response to live public consultation notices with fast-approaching deadlines — typically within 30 to 45 days. The short comment period is permitted in ANSI’s Continuous Maintenance due process platform. There are less than 30 standards setting organizations whose consensus product suite requires such quick response — and those titles typically involve public safety concepts.
Today at 11 AM/ET. Use the login credentials at the upper right of our home page.

We’re “organized” but not too organized; like the bookseller who knows where every book can be found.
