wow....Ive heard of people with 2 (which I have NO issue with)..but not 3 or 4.... When I first started in 'bama in 1993 they were BEGGING some people to take 2 so they could just cover the local requirements. Fortunately its spread around a little more, and they tend to be a little smaller. (But Montgomery or Dothan Alabama are still THE best places to go for a national... Particularly Montgomery....). The new program is great..they should have done it sooner. Its been done in a lot of areas on an informal basis,and thats one of the big reasons some areas flourish.
