Thanks, Henry.  I saw this book and the claims on Amazon.com, but I wasn't
sure if it was as good as it says it is.  I'll get it.

Thanks PT.  I began studying formal Project Management in 1995 and I kept a
log of my hours periodically since then, but I decided to not pursue
certification.  Then, PMI implemented an online hours tracking system that I
used for a little while.  They also changed their rules a little.  I got
very annoyed at the thought of becoming a project manager, so I didn't
pursue certification.  Then, PMI upgraded their system and increased the
education requirements for certification.  I think they made other changes
too.  I've been updating my hours like every year for a couple of years, but
I didn't wanted to finish this.  In my latest dealings, I've decided that
PMP certification might help as it is getting very popular with state
agencies and for some of the people that I've worked with.  Now, I guess
I'll bite the bullet and get the certification.

I have a year minus 5 days to procrastinate, but I'll probably go ahead with
this in a couple months after I've studied for the test.  It is, afterall, a
tax-deductible expense for me, now.
