I'm not sure if that was somehow directed at me or not... I don't think so, but Not sure... Anyway, I try not to have an attitude like that when dealing with people, be they technical or not. In fact, my customers generally thank me for explaining their problems and solutions in terms that they can understand. I have met several multi-certed people with knowitall attitudes, though... So I understand. > I went and certified with RH... why? I have no freakin' idea... I hate RH w > a passion... and after that, I hated it more!
