Hey Tony,

You should be praised and congratulated for not perpetuating all that
elitist nonsense about how difficult it is to get a ccie. Frankly, as you
and many others know getting a ccie is really no big deal. Read a book,
take a couple exams and bah-da-bing ba-da-boom you're a ccie.

I'm tried of hearing all the laments and whining of lots of lazy, half wits
who won't even take the time to carefully read a few hundred pages of a
technical book complaining about how hard this is - especially when most
people pass the exam after just 2 or 3 weeks of preparation.

Thank you for telling it like it is and not trying to elevate the ccie to
Nobel prize status.
