I have this ambition, after the certification quest is complete, to write a
book called "The Wit and Wisdom of Howard B."
So I same e-mails like this one for material.
Now I'm fracking out of space on my hard drive!

Bringing the subject back to networking, remember, when studying
bridging, that a troll traditionally is the layer below the bridge.
Unfortunately, no bridge management tool of which I am aware is
preprogrammed to ask:
"what is your name?
"what is your quest?
"what is the velocity of the sparrow?
Is implementing this capability a potential CCIE lab requirement?
