Whether your candidate won or lost, it is time to set aside our differences and start working together as Americans to save our great country.

Another year has gone by with as much unrest as this country has not seen since the civil war. Now that the election is over, we can all start to settle investigators, we only deal with the facts. Opinions are only given based on the facts known and are never assumed! For those of you dragging your feet with your certification end- ing in 2019/2020, you only have a few weeks before your CFL certi- fications expire. Missing this deadline would mean reapplying and taking the test again. Do not let this happen. If your name is on this list, send a check to IAIL in care of ALOA for your recertification. There is an exciting white paper written by our member Tex Thompson that will be published soon on the new Smart Lock decoder. From my family to yours, Buon Natale, Amici!
