HOB, I only noticed the one bleeder, I'll take a closer look at the caliper when I get home tonight. Thanks for the tip.

Tommy B, I chalk it up to my charming personality . I did have to go twice, the first time they failed me on a tail light problem (had two wires reversed), and a loose wheel bearing, which was also a simple fix. I went back the next morning (saturday) and was done within an hour. I'm not sure why everyone has problems, the guys I dealt with were pretty cool, maybe I just got lucky. On the brake test, I got a "Good enough for government work" comment making a reference to the fact that I work at Electric Boat. I also made a disparaging remark about "fart can" exhausts and honda civics when we were chatting before they started the inspection, I think that won me some brownie points.
