Recertifying

Does a CCIE have to re-take the written and the lab every 3 (or 2) years? What a pain that would be to fly out again and cough up all that money. $1500 isn't $125. Is this just considered part of having the cert? And I'm thinking of those few guys who have four, five, or even six CCIEs. I guess Cisco would take care of them - or they should.
