Electrical engineer currently working in process control at an (the only) oil refinery in WA. Its all just a big computer game :)

Trying to figure out how to make more money out of beer ......

IT Consultant/Technical Solutions Architect specialising in MetaDirectories and Directory Services amongst other cross platfrom technologies.
 
I teach Australian History at the Uni of Newcastle and am close to finishing my PhD. Yeah, I know, bloody academic... Nothing too practical I can offer Ozdevil... Other than that I have played in bands around town for years. Drummer by trade...

BigD any jobs going at your place of work :p
 
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
