There is a place for CPA's that knows about IT. Someone has to bridge the gap (and there is a gap).
One danger I found was that the IT people thought you were an acct, and the acct. people thought you were wierd. The mangement, however would listen to you if you knew what you were talking about. You usually did because you could see both sides. IF you don't know what your talking about, however, keep your mouth shut. (almost always good advice).
A large number of people in the US have a new religion. They may not know it though. A majority of church attendees have little idea of the tenents of their faith. I guess they make it up as they go along.
"Old line" religions do better, ie catholics, CofE etc....
You could study the one field most CS/tech people ignore, and don't do well in as a rule. Reading and writing. With heavy emphasis on the writing. Tech skills can become obsolete, but critcal thinking and good writing have a long future.
There are a lot of infected computers out there. I often run TARPIT under iptables, and am amazed at the quantity of stuff I get.
I have it set up to stick to the usual windows ports, 135,137... 445 etc.
I finaly sent email to one ISP in wyoming suggesting they help a guy, he had been stuck for days. At least it may have slowed down infecting someone else.
Are you sure you can handle numbers that big. Sendmail can be a bank vault or an open door. It is up to you. The recent default mode seem closer to bank vault than open window.
Portland and southern Oregon are not/ were not friendly places for non whites. Portland at one time had a particularly bad reputation. May still have, ( I am a whitey).
Mountain biking in that area (The Dalles) sounds grim. Lots of lava, hitting that stuff at any speed and you'll need a new epidermus. It's sort of like coarse crushed glass. Road rash on steriods.
only one problem , The Dalles isn't near Portland. except in the sense that Barcelona is near Paris. You don't commute from The Dalles to Portland. (well there are mashochist...)
I would call it a little nearer The Dalles dam than Bonneville. You may be thinking of Cascade Locks or Hood River.
The Dalles is NOT Portland, it's where the Aluminum smelter is. Weather is diff, it's east of the moutains, colder, windier, DRYER, etc... for more on weather see: http://www.ocs.oregonstate.edu/index.html
Better like rocks and dry grass. If you like wind surfing and snow skiing you are in pretty good shape. Be aware that the gorge in winter can be impassable.
PS the town is called THE DALLES. Makes for strange road signs, ie "DOWNTOWN THE DALLES"," CITY OF THE DALLES"
If there was something worth watching this might be good. I have 180 Dish channels and some Canadian. I have a feeling that my phone company will provide more of the same.
sea levels rise some, Japan current gets partialy diverted thru Bering strait. Warm Japan current flushes ice out of Acrtic Ocean. Might plug up around north end of Greenland and stop flow from Arctic Ocean. Would this change Gulf Stream? Or might push lot of cold water into north atlantic, affecting European climate.
I think people will notice. What they will notice I am not sure. The arctic ocean is not stagnant. it circulates, mostly pacific to altantic (top of Greenland).Ice can impeed this flow , lack of ice would likely speed it up.
Already the summer icefree area of the actic ocean are growing. The water is also being diluted by more fresh water, some russian river have been increasing in flow.
You still have to pay for the sat service, not doing so is theft. However; gettting CA tv in the US also requires some subterfuge. Yes some people like CA tv!
Two examples; Royal Ca Air Farce, 22 minutes, the National, french language programing, Le Porte des Attoilles (star gate). (so I can't count).

I hit that eternal beta today looking for a Dr Who
video. never did get there. What they have done to the news makes one long for the like of tin.
All I ended up with were a couple of snotty responses from morons.org. At least they had some self awareness.

If you spell it correctly it makes a lot more sense:
...
Gimme cracked corn and I don't care
gimme cracked corn and I don't care
The substance in question is corn whiskey.
White lignting, moonshine, mountain dew etc

they will come... and buy our protection.
Iremember something like this in Alaska, in the 80's
lots of conspiricy theories, etc...

I didn't want my new Slack 10 to be the last one.
Being sick in ND is a good reason to get well.
You do not want to winter in ND.
It will be free as long and there are other companies producing like software. When they are gone then MSFT user get to PAY. Not a mystery.
I much prefer the Raven pecking open the oyster shell and liberating people to inhabit the earth.
Raven. bear and salmon THE holy trinity.
Run that up your totem pole and see who salutes.
The reason anyone would do this is a bit Merkey.
They won't notice the polutants. Can see 'um for the smog.

As for what this means , take a number....
A $25 box from St Vincent dePaul add slack, another
ether card and you have a good router/firewall.
Using iptables snort etc.

Why let in connections from these countries?
If you have business or contacts , maybe, otherwise
why bother?
Iptables on a firewall does a lot of good.
Put selective holes in if you need to, I even block some US ISPs that are bad on spam and probes.
I connect to the internet for my convienence not theirs.
