I hope I have a similar thing to say after my lab is scored over the
weekend. I finished well before the time was expired, went back and checked
everything and then checked again... I thought I probably got most of the
points, I may have hosed a few, but one of the switches became possessed
toward the end of the exam...
Here's hoping......
