4000 CCIEs in 18 months???

ALL,

I have a friend who passed his lab, (security), in November of 2007. His
number is 19511. I passed last week and my number is 24266. So, in 18 months
4700+ people got their number. This seems crazy when you consider that
between 1993 and the end of 2007 there were 18500+ CCIEs. What do you guys
attribute this increase to? Dynamips?? Is it that theres wasnt an Ipexpert
or Internetwork Expert around back in the day? Is the lab easier than it
use to be?
