The above is not true, not even close. Don't knock yourself, you don't deserve it :-) In my day job I get to meet many people, and vast fleets of them are paid obscene amounts of money to do sysadmin work. I have an unprintable opinion of most of these folks (I'm tired of cleaning up after them and they mess they leave). You on the other hand would wipe the floor with easily 95% of those clowns. Seriously. And that goes for just about everyone else on this list who has been around a while. -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckinnon@gmail.com
