Narbik,

Aren't people teaching the protocols now? Why aren't people passing
yet? It should not matter if the test changes or not in this case. We
are seeing something strange here. People have been taught the
technologies or we like to think so and no one is passing. Are not
enough people taking the test? Or are 90% of the technologies no
longer sufficient to pass this exam? Do you have any of your students
scheduled to take this lab Mister Narbik?

AtlantaCCIE,

Are all of these people monkeys who are failing the lab? Or are all of
them poorly prepared and simply do not know the technologies? When
will someone who is not a monkey pass?

I actually read somewhere that they were teaching monkeys to erase the
pod and re-write the config but maybe they copied and pasted too. Has
anyone ever seen a monkey taking the lab when they were taking the
lab? ;)
