Thanks for the information, it is helpful, and I am not disputing the validity of the information.

The problem seems to be at a provincial, and even county level. One hand doesn't know what the other is doing. It is still very much a soviet legacy, in that there is zero transparency, and it is very difficult to get a truthful answer.

I expect I will get the usual discourteous last minute notice on friday evening, you have make up classes on saturday and sunday:) Then fine. But that equals dvds all the way:)
