Hi Jay,

I agree that it will be a shame to miss this opportunity to attend the conference and take the certification exam.  I had been truly looking forward to heading to New Orleans in January with a group of friends.  Unfortunately, I was unable to find anyone willing to make the trip and I simply cannot afford the expense of traveling alone.  It would end up costing me close to $1,000 after all was said and done, and I just don't have nearly that kind of "disposable" cash right now.

I wish all of those who are going to take the test the best of luck.  I look forward to the chance to take the exam when it is next offered.

Happy Holidays to all.  Have a blessed New Year.

Lori
