In a corporate setting, "having people who care" is just
as important as the technical issues.

I have enjoyed it. I submit a lot of content from various
industry media. In one issue a few years back, I had one-half of the
submissions. Other people post in their areas of knowledge, and there
can be very interesting reading.

Sincerely,

Gene Wirchenko
