Go CCIE Go!! - A Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert

I’m not so sure this is true. It may just be an urban legend. I had thought the same thing until I recently went from one partner to another, and the partner was able to immediately use my CCIE. Does anyone know if there is any documentation anywhere citing this? If this is just a rumor, than it is one we need to stop it because it lessens the value of our hard earned cert.
