Austin told me 10 working days...From the point of "issue"...

I figure they have to milk the plastic cow, pasturize the process, let it cure, get the ink supply refilled from Office depot, pay a union guy/gal to service the printer, heat up the laminating machine, test it by burning one's finger, taking that person to the hospital for this terrible trauma, come back (the next day) and print it all out, get a certified laminator (Laminators Local BR-549), let it all cool down, get someone to place it in an envelope, lick the stamp and seal the envelop, put it into the outgoing mail, where it will sit for another day or so, then it makes that magical trip to the post office where it is sorted and sent on a wagon pulled by oxen to Houston to yet another post office, sorted, then sent out in one of those white looking box trucks to the nearest Denny's for breakfast, then its off to Luby's for lunch...Then about 2-4pm that day it winds up in my mailbox...

And to think we have never seen this process on Mr. Roger's nieghborhood when Fred was still alive...Geesh...

Congrats! We mailed on the same day 1/17, but I did not go to BG review until 2/6, five days later than you. Hopefully my timeline will not drop further back. I hope to be in manufacturing next week. :totap:
