I can relate to those statements.
I joined the NT and Exch list in 1999, during the Y2k craze. The "real world" IT education I received then and continue to receive from these lists is still overwhelming.

Yup. Tough list if you were a noob, which I was. It was pretty frustrating sometimes, since all the "exchange experts" seemed to think the purpose of the list was to just congregate together and embarrass anyone who asked a question that somebody may have asked within the last 6 months. For some of us exchange was/is just another application we had to support as opposed to a career path. And god forbid anyone suggest not running Trend, or running brick level backups. Steven Wynkoop is still around, in AZ I think, still involved in SQL stuff last I saw.
