Jason,
I agree on your list and sorting/sifting through mail has become a regular
exercise but occassionally it's nice
to take a break and sit back and be entertained for a while (and
participate occasionally).
I hope everyone feels BETTER after SHARING their views on CCIE/MCSE - I
have no certificates and have failed the
lab already so I think you're all doing fine & dandy from where I'm
sitting.
