>Remember two things, you should not be climbing under things anymore. Directors direct others to do this work....depending on the size of the organization. Speaking as a director and as a continuing desk diver, I agree with the "Contractor wear" top thread, but keep a pair a jeans in a drawer in your office/cubicle, just in case....and congrats on the promotion.
I actually watched this movie when it premiered...

Geeks have never been "intellectual." They have been smart and focused on their own subject (read "obsessive'). The internet has now made it possible to for these DIYers to bypass the traditional form of education. Intellectualism equates to being well rounded - that only happens later in life, when the geek has saturated his knowledge on his own subject and decides to branch out.
The examples given include "Yahoo!, historical and current celebrities, Steven Spielberg, Lady Gaga, Steve Jobs, Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen and Angelina Jolie." In one case you have a tech company where the culture is to bring in geeks and in the other cases listed, they can be defined as creators of their own product (entrepreneurs). What is missing is the standard business model - starting in the mail room and working your way to the top. I find that the popular kids still kick butt in the standard business world. In addition to high intelligence and drive, one needs a keen set of social skills to understand management at the highest level. Most geeks do not, as per the popular Venn Diagram
As far as making them "good" adults, obsessing about your kids is a good thing.
So take an animal, sequestered for experimentation, and give it a modicum of stimuli and see if it likes it? I tell you what, release the monkey, put a TV into the wild and see if free monkeys will stop and watch.
Most people who illegally download movies, music and TV shows would pay for them if there was a cheap and legal service as convenient as file-sharing tools like BitTorrent.
Ticketing is not just a management reporting tool. It allows us to see if there is an issue that is repetitive and needs a deeper fix. It allows IT to search on previous similar issues to quicken the time to a fix. It quickens response time to a problem and is a useful tool to make sure that issues do not get dropped. I'm a fan.
That said, IT as a business within business is bound to fail because, at the heart of IT, us guys ain't in sales and we rarely sell ourselves well. IT is a business catalyst. IT is a cost center, but you need to spend money to make money. Good IT management is good cost analysis.
I've got a device in front the mail server, many people do. These and others work fine. Sorry for folks that don't have one. As long as it is free, it will be abused. Someone already said it was cat and mouse.
With the movie remake of When Worlds Collide due out in 2010, a story like this would be one way to create a buzz. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0455856/
The current 4/8 gig units cannot hold a candle to the equivalent ipods. However, the 80/120 gig units in screen size and dpi, format handling, DRM issues, fm signal, etc. blows away the ipod "classic." Now, if MS can only do something to improve Zune Marketplace.

No lines. Voted on Scantron. Election judge handed me a judges sheet which was already voided. Got another sheet and had no problems.
This reminds me of the James R. Berry article from Modern Mechanix, November 1968, describing life in 2008. Interesting to see what they got right and wrong. Still missing my jetpack...
Are you a fan of the Cloud? Is it secure enough for Enterprise applications? What would you use it for and "not use it for?"

Isn't every planet other than Earth "alien?"
