Yeah, Jim.
I've actually never submitted any questions to the CG, never got over the "us and them" differences and felt I might be "aiding and abetting" but there apparently is a whole group of licensed mariners with nothing much to do other than dream up questions. One of the things that makes the exams difficult is that the answers are multiple choice. The novice thinks, "oh good, all I have to do is get close to the right answer". Those who've taken the exams before know that the wrong answers will be, not just some random numbers but, rather the resultant answer of the most commonly made errors! As you may have seen, apply your variation or deviation the wrong way and your answer will appear in the choices, and be wrong. Devious buggers.
