Here's how the system works.

You decide to take an exam thinking it will change something LOOP
   You give someone money for classes
   You give someone money for a book
   You give someone money for the test
   You cram information into your head like crazy for a month until it spills out your ears

   You take a test
   They give you a piece of paper
   You reference the piece of paper on your resume    IF hired THEN

      EXIT;
   END IF;
   You decide to take another exam thinking it will change something END LOOP; Daniel Morgan Received on Thu Jul 18 2002 - 14:55:28 CDT
