Is Finkleman the guy with the 'half glasses' ?? Took my test from
him in 1966, as did my father just before WWII...

FCC office in lower Manhattan. Finkleman's exam chairs were school
desk writing arm chairs. The writing surface had grooves everywhere.
They were the size of the Grand Canyon. You were given a very thin
sheet of paper and a dull pencil to write your copy. I could barely
get the pencil out of a groove to write the next letter. Felt deliberate.

Finkleman's keys in New York were like that, too. I remember trying
to adjust mine. He must have used a pipe wrench to tighten them down.
