There are still smart young pups out there (and I’m amazed at how smart some of them are), but some of us older guys and gals are still pretty active. Ain’t that right, Web? ☺ From: Maglinger, Paul [mailto:[email protected]]<mailto:[mailto:[email protected]]> Sent: Tuesday, July 03, 2012 2:30 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: RAID Explained Interesting because when I started attending the HP Technology Forum a lot of the attendees wore jeans, tshirts, ponytails, beards and were men. Now most are still men, but wear khakis and polos, clean shaven (or goatee), and very few wear ponytails. And there are noticeably more women (and being the father of two daughters, I say “Yea!”).

AKA IF (x) THEN odds are that (y) fits stereotype (z). X=At computer/tech event Y=this beautiful woman Z=not an attendee X=At a NASCAR race Y=the attendee Z=drinks beer and drives a pickup (possibly at the same time) Some stereotypes exist because statistically they are (or were at one time) correct. Grab 1000 sysadmins and how many fit the stereotype of a computer guy? I was at MMS2012 and hate to tell ya, the vast majority fit the stereotype…but no,I’m not saying it fits 100% of any situation.

I don't think I qualify as a "booth-bunny" but just because I have girl parts doesn't mean I have no intellect or knack for science/technology. :P -lc ________________________________ From: Daniel Chenault <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> To: NT System Admin Issues <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Sent: Tuesday, July 3, 2012 11:48 AM Subject: RE: RAID Explained Tech-Ed 2002 was here in Dallas and as always happens the night life area was full of attendees. One of my professional acquaintances is a very lovely lady who, at the time, was a network administrator for a name you’d all recognize. She was dancing on the bar at Coyote Ugly; an attendee standing next to me said something about her and I pointed out she was attending. He asked which booth she was working at. Came out that he thought she was a booth bunny and didn’t believe me that she was every bit as smart as any other attendee.
