When I took my Extra a bunch of us from National Radio went all of 10 
miles to the FCC Boston office on a bright warm day the day after 
Incentive Licensing was effective (1968 ?).

Everybody passed what they wanted and we then proceeded to a nice 
restaurant with outdoor tables and commenced  to eat and load up on 
adult beverages.

Driving home was harder than the exam..........
