John- I honestly & sincerely wish you the best. As far a your view on GroupStudy... I've been around for over a year now & you are far from the first announce such a view. In fact, I remember that last fellow said he had read all the books & was now a CCIE. Anywho- its not for everyone, but I have made friends "on this list" who have helped with resumes, setting-up interviews that led to jobs, meeting people in interviews that I realized I knew from this list, given me books, helped me figure out old Cisco equipment, helped me repair equipment, I've received lab advice, bought equipment from, sold equipment to, received helped with configs, & "Oh Ya," I've had a couple of hundred question (some stupid) answered over the past year too. This has been my reward for weeding through the E-mails. I just hope I've been a gracious enough servant, to have given of what I have received :-) All the best !!!

I thought this list might have helped me along but mostly it just wasted valuable time. There is never a shortage of stupid questions and people that don't know how to read the archives to get 80% of the questions answered. If I have to read one more question asking what book to read for the CCNA or some other test I'm gonna be sick. In the span of 6 days I read all the books and passed the pathetic CCNP. What a joke that test was. For those of you that asked me about the Foundation test it was terribly easy. Anyone that even reads the material and half understands it will pass. As far as the whiners, snitches, and morons you know what I think of you. People like you allow me to command a higher and higher rate every few months cause no one wants to work with someone like that. Keep it up. I even had one crybaby by the name of Louie Belt tell me he was going to have me removed from this list and have my hotmail account terminated. LOL. Apparently he thought he was so influential that he had the power to terminate my accounts just cause I called him a name. :) Nice try. For those that I've had positive interaction with feel free to email me if you have questions or want to chat. See ya. John **NOTE: New CCNA/CCDA List has been formed.
