NOW I understand - I ATE the lunch. I just shouldn't have
eaten the lunch!!!! RATS! ;)
I'll be trying again in November.
BTW, on the 1 pass out of 30 people: have they increased
capacity in RTP? I recall seeing capacity for 4 people to
start each day. If you assume testing Mon-Sat, that's 5
days of starts, and 4 x 5 = 20 max tested in a week. The
only reason I'm clarifying is because it makes an already
bad pass rate even worse, stealing even more hope from the
struggling wannabes (like me). Even being the 1 pass out of
20 is commendable, so my hat's off either way.
