Yes, but according to Visa and PCI cheerleaders, that means they were PCI 
compliant on October 31, 2008, probably at 3:32p and not one minute 
after, let alone a day after, let alone a month(s)..

The silly part of this is that there is any debate on compliance status. 
The fact that the NetSol person may be wrong (per Anton), Visa lists 
compliance as of 9 months ago and it taking a ouija board to figure out 
compliance *today* speaks volumes.
