[LBo] Intro

[Tim Billingsley]

I guess while I am at it I should say "Hi"

I have dabbled with Linux since going back to school in 2000. RedHat, 
Suse, Mandrake, Knoppix, Debian, Libranet, slack, Ham Hack, DSL, and 
currently CENTOS, Kubuntu, SimplyMEPIS, ClarkConnect, and most recently 
TrixBox. I have been involved in computers since the time of the 
Timex/Sinclair and have been a COBOL/Command Level CICS programmer, a 
Network Administrator (on a very small scale), and various other things 
in the world of computers. I am a Ham radio enthusiast and involved in 
emergency management in both professional and personal life. I maintain 
the network and radio equipment at work and I am the DEC/EC for my 
county and region as well as the RACES officer for my county. I know the 
acronyms don't do much for the rest of you but the Ham guys should know 
what I am talking about. I am not a Master of anything and I know just 
enough to be dangerous so I guess the reason I hang around the list and 
irc are to pick up tidbits of information and hopefully clues to other 
problems I may encounter. I have been tossed the "RTFM" line so many 
times in other venues that I find it better most of the time to be 
patient and keep reading as I can. Unfortunately my vision does not 
allow me to read for extended periods of time so novels are not my cup 
of tea. I will gladly answer questions I feel I am qualified to answer 
and will gladly bow out when a more knowledgeable individual steps in 
[this way I have both hands free to take notes ..  ;-)]

Looks like this should be an interesting group. Glad to see the list 
this active.
