<<….you don't seem to possess the gift of communicational understanding. Somehow, the e-mail interpreter has told you something different than I passed to it.>> Gee, you're reading me TOTALLY WRONG! Your own statement "being "preserved" for the boarded review and consideration. Be advised, though, that this data (when fully compiled) will not be distributed at will by anyone on the Exam Board or by Drake." apparentently may be interpreted in several ways! The wording that you have selected may not be representative of what YOU are trying to communicate to me and others who are interest in the progress of ACE. I think there exists a question of semantics in your choice of the word "PRESERVED". Part of the definition of this word includes "to keep, guard,observe". Which when taken in context with the statements and course of this thread could indicate other meanings. You need to COMMUNCATE what you mean more precisely inorder to avoid others misinterpreting the context of your statement. <<Regarding the absence of the ATC public over this subject…some of your approaches and critically judgmental positions are being shared by them, and unknowingly..you may be their spokesman. What is really needed here is constructive, healthy criticism…accusations and downplay is what we've been getting from some of the ATC's…. >> Now, that's pushing it a bit too much Bill! I particularly disagree with you labeling me with the statement "some of your approaches and critically judgmental positions are being shared by them, and unknowingly..you may be their spokesman." I am not a "spokesman" for any group or cause as you have implied here. I do not support this statement or its context in any form. So Please don't try to pigeon hole me on this! If there is a "group" of individuals who share such "approaches and critically judgmental positions", then why don't THEY come forward! I am not speaking for them. I am trying to bring to the table issues of data for use in research on professional CADD staff development. The issue of testing and certification is a serious concern with in industry that has not been properly documented.
