I do remember sometime spring/summer/autumn of 1960 getting on
the Long Island Railroad, riding into New York, and then taking
the subway much further south than I had ever been before. I
walked into the office and was greeted by a gruff examiner who
gave me the tests. I managed to pass both the 5 WPM and the
novice written and ended up as WV2NOO. Oh, and the gruff
examiner congratulated me on passing.

Paraphrasing what one of my mentors once said "do not attribute evil
motives on the part of the examiner to the shortcomings on the part of
the examinee". Being scared of the examiner was one of the rites of
passage that really had no foundation in reality.
