Seriously, I missed the last test, I thought they were still doing free, walk-in exams but they changed it and I didn't know until the day after the filing period ended.

Wow.....17% over 4 years? Is that 3 - 4's and a 5 % or is 17% the total compounded raise? It would be nice to see it broken down.

Anyone else hear about a potential class of about 100 being put through soon?
