I'd like to add the following to Sparky66wv's reply.

Licenses in WV are just a piece of paper that costs $50 a year. Approximately 1/3 of the licenses were grandfathered. As for those that took the test, it just means they know how to read. There is no continuing education requirement and the only way to lose your license that I know of is to fail to pay your $50.

I've heard that Florida doesn't license their electricians, but they do require a license to do someones hair. Any truth to this?

Few things are harder to put up with than the annoyance of a good example.
