They all work in the same building and get paid from the same pool of money,
but the last time I visited the Seattle AFSS there was one person at the
Flight Watch position whose sole responsibility it was to answer queries
about the weather on 122.0...s/he worked no other frequency. And his scope
did not have a flight plan screen, as did the other scopes in the room.

Uh... Andrew, you do realize that Flight Watch is a purely weather
position with no other responsibilities, right? Call FSS, yes, call
Flight
Watch, no.

I've often wondered: why the distinction? Isn't Flight Watch the same set
of people?
