Article and presentation by Lt. (j.g.) Kathleen Charters at the Commissioned Officer’s Association Conference. This was held a long time ago, so long ago that, while microcomputers and printers did exist, the printers, in particular, were better than handwriting, but not much.

This is just part of a scan of the article. Attempting to do OCR (Optical Character Recognition) on the article was frustrating. While the OCR did, in fact, find words, it also invented some, too, because of the difficulty in recognizing the letters. Note the ones I’ve highlighted in red boxes. These letters are supposed to have descenders – parts of the letter that extend below the baseline of a line of text. But they don’t, and the OCR process routinely made up things, making this a very difficult paper to move from paper to the web.
