I caught the bug. Oh my God, Did I say sysadmin???? I meant SA! (Wart off some of the flames). Especially the person who pointed out that I spelled implementation incorrectly. Gee, and the rest of that article was perfect. Awww, gee, I was almost a wizard... That one character blew it for me. :-( Guess I will have to quit my job and everything. Hey, my job..., not Adelphi University, my programmer alalyst job... I just thought of another one... How do you tell a wizard? By how much money the company pays him TO STAY TECHNICAL and not move into management where he becomes a pencil pushing gghant chart maker-upper. -- Adelphi University, Garden City, NY 11530 (516) 663-1170 Department of Mathematics and Computer Science markd@adelphi.UUCP or mark@promark.UUCP UUCP: uunet!mimsy!rutgers!columbia!adelphi!markd
