   Andrew,   
      
   AH>Thanks for your advice Daryl. We have a VE session coming up next Saturday.   
   AH>It's going to be a large session too because there is a series of classes   
   AH>being taught for all three levels of licensing, so we'll actually be able to   
   AH>put all those extra VEs to work.   
      
     They didn't tell the VE's that we'd be getting writers cramp from all   
   the paperwork. :P   
      
   AH>I wonder if we will ever get to the point where we administer the exams   
   AH>with computers, similar to how it's done with driver's tests at the DMV? Of   
   AH>course that would have its own unique challenges.   
      
     Not sure, but they do allow "remote testing", like in some isolated   
   areas of Alaska. However, at least one, if not two VE's must be   
   present...and the other is monitoring via webcam from the VEC   
   Headquarters. The biggest thing is to be sure there is no   
   cheating...either on the part of the examiners or the examiness.
