You know, in one way LPI has gone back to the 'never expires'. The status flag is, to me, more of what it states; an _activity_ flag. Back when the policy was changed to 'expire in 10 years', what would have happened? I know that the system wasn't setup to do anything (the nice thing about a 10 year window to implement something ;)) but I'm guessing that the action would have been (something close to?) deletion. I see a difference between 'expiry' and 'activity'. > change that exam and the fact that I passed it.

Y'all may be shouting at windmills, though. How many LPI directors are on this list? As with Taki, these are my personal opinions...
