Was hoping to get my PIN soon, but guessing it will be a while now.

As a former UNIX Admin, what happened to the security firewall?? Anyway, I did receive my PIN today and it took every bit of 6 weeks to get it. :thumbs2:

02/28/09 -- CHL Class Taken
03/04/09 -- Packet mailed to DPS
03/10/09 -- Received by DPS via certified mail
04/20/09 -- PIN received - Processing App
XX/XX/09 -- Application Complete
XX/XX/09 -- Plastic in hand!

PS: How do you add someone elses quote to my post to make a comment on that quote? It keeps giving me the syntax for the quote and not the actual quote mark. :confused5

You should be able to click the "quote" button in the top right of the comment. That gave me your comment with "quote="skeetshooter"" in brackets followed by your post. At the end of your comment was "/quote" in brackets again. I just put my cursor after the end quote code and hit 'return' to space it below the quoted comment. I use Firefox and Safari, and it works identically on both. Hope this helps.
