WOOHOO!

    Don't go home unexpected if you really don't want to know.

    I don't think mine would, but I subscribe to the military way......

    Don't ask, don't tell.

    Good luck. Just finally did my paperwork today. Looks like the start of December. Just in time for all that snow out West.
