Yeah Kevin! Go get em. Presumably you've read and/or heard about the
latest zap in Computing Canada. I just received it in this week's CC.

By way of contribution, I'd like to suggest that since CIPS now officially
has a CBOK might we require that all ISP's be tested on it within
a 'reasonable' time-frame. If it is our 'common body of knowledge'
shouldn't we be expected to be able to prove our understanding of it?

Seeya,
Steve Gallinger, ISP
