Where'd I get that bad info?  Sorry about starting the rumor!

I'd be happy to have you present again.

What I'm hoping for is a presentation geared towards someone who's new 
to Linux/UNIX.  Say a developer who's been writing Java on a Windows 
platform.  I mean a complete shell newbie.

Don't take that to mean you can re-present your presentation that was 
certainly meant for more experienced scripters, but I was trying to 
address some of the requests from KSU.

Oooh, put something together and we can have a presentation on that as 
well. :)
