Good question Dave and sorry to say I don't envy your drive in Dallas every day. I've been in the computer field for 31 years. I'm a Computer Operations Manager in a fairly large data center with a "central server" (can't call it mainframe anymore), and approximately 50 servers supporting 2,000 plus clients. I manage the computer room and first level support help center where we average 1500 calls/month. Keeps me busy. To keep my sanity (what's left of it) I try to read a few posts on Joe's site every day and get some "creeper time" in my garage at night. I live 17 miles from work and the drive is relaxing since there is very little traffic and all I see is corn fields. Is it Heaven? No, it's Iowa.
