Ryan,

IMHO,  I noticed they listed Bryan, and even the mucky, mucks
that have fancy titles.. You know... the ones that are EVP's,
but no one knows what hey do.  On the other hand, it looks like even
the temp secy's were listed.  Where is your name!! I looked real
hard.  Being a technologist, isn't is always the most talented
that get overlooked?

It is a great add-on, but without the dedicated linux server
it is like a "power boat without water".  You an still enjoy it,
looks way cool, cockpit feels nice, flashy instrumentation, but don't
expect any strong breezes and refreshing air to hit you in the
face when you have "friends on board".  ;-)
