I run a team of IT engineers, and play tech when i get shitted off with management stuff. I tend to do most things, but specialise in Sharepoint, VoIP (Alcatel & Cisco), IP and Layer 4 to 7 balancing, oh and Citrix.

Neuroscientist and molecular biologist. Not much to add to the group that way, but hey I can make beer :).

I'm working on regenerating neurons following physical injury and also various aspects of neurodegenerative diseases. Perhaps this may come in handy for a few of us lads on the forum. I have no doubts that there are a large number of us doing nasty things to our brain cells as a direct result of this hobby.

Hate to break it to you lads, the slowest buffalo theory doesn't hold much water (or beer for that matter!).

Cheers, Justin

How many IT guys brew? LOTS. Check any forum anywhere. If you have a computer problem, post it in a brewing forum. Members tend to know about computers AND be patient and friendly.

OK, off the top of my head, lets see how well I know my fellow posters and how many I can offend by getting it completely wrong

Asher.. draftee/designery type guy
Batz .. Fitter type guy
Dicko ....pest control type guy
Big D ...Fitter type guy
Goat...architecty thingy
Wasabi...Brewing student
Devilsaltarboy...Chem student/lecturer
Kook...IT type guy
Me.... Rock type guy
