Most people are not willing to do that, especially when they have the TPGs to do it for them. That is how and why the TPGs manage to exist in the first place. And then when people begin to doubt some of the grades assigned by the TPGs, along comes CAC, and CAC helps to remove some of those doubts. That is why CAC came into being and how they manage to exist.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m sorry, but I really cannot see how anyone can even question that, let alone deny it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
