nah, you dont want them as hosts... Howard and Priscilla would never stop talking. They would be just way to helpful and feel too bad when people got booted off the show. Not to mention, neither are CCIEs. :)
Jeff would have to recertify as only active CCIEs would be allowed on the show!! To make the show spicy, my vote for the hosts: Scott Morris and Paul Borghese For the critics: Brian Dennis, Kathryn Saccenti, Lou Rossi thanks, -Brad Ellis CCIE#5796 (R&S / Security) Network Learning Inc [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.optsys.net (Cisco hardware) wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > Priscilla Oppenheimer, Howard Berkowitz, and Jeff Doyle > > -----Original Message----- > From: Jason Viera [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 28 August 2002 14:37 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: No longer 4 digits [7:52146] > > > Who would be the hosts?????????????:) > ""Brad Ellis"" wrote in message > [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > > they need to keep the number for CCIE's less than 10,000. they should > > so > a > > "squeeze" and change everyone's #. then, when it start to get closer > > to 10,000 again, we have a contest like American Idol, call it > > Worldwide > IEdol > > instead. have them program routers and solve technical problems in > > front > of > > a live audience. everyone could then go to groupstudy and vote for who > they > > want to kick off the show!!! > > > > thanks, > > -Brad Ellis > > CCIE#5796 (R&S / Security) > > Network Learning Inc > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > www.optsys.net (Cisco hardware) > > Voice: 702-968-5100 > > FAX: 702-968-5104 > > > > ""Moffett, Ryan"" wrote in message > > [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > > > Well, the online verification system says that "Stuart Biggs" is > > > CCIE > > 1025, > > > though the current status is Inactive. > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: Chuck Ryan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > > Sent: Tuesday, August 27, 2002 5:22 PM > > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > Subject: Re: No longer 4 digits [7:52146] 2nd Terry Slattery quote > > > [7:52165] > > > > > > > > > Actually, I thought/read/heard that CCIE #1025 (aka the first CCIE) > was/is > > > Jeff Buddemeier, technical lead for Cisco. > > > > > > This is the first time I ever heard the name Stewart Biggs mentioned > > > as > > CCIE > > > #1025. > > > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > > From: "Daniel Cotts" > > > To: > > > Sent: Tuesday, August 27, 2002 4:01 PM > > > Subject: RE: No longer 4 digits [7:52146] 2nd Terry Slattery quote > > [7:52159] > > > > > > > > > > In my previous post I quoted a post from Terry Slattery regarding > > > > the > > > first > > > > CCIEs.
