(I'm plonked by Randy, so I doubt he will get this. I don't necessarily
care too much about that.)

I doubt Geoff is getting the "big bucks" that he could get at a few
other places in the region. He used to work for the incumbent telco
in .au, and based on what the last CEO was paid, he'd probably have
been on a very good wicket these days if he'd chosen to stay there. He
didn't.

(Randy, if you see this, you do add a lot of value to the community.
However, I think your knee-jerk, childish and schoolyard reactions would
also loose you a lot of the respect that you've earned from the work
that you've done. Please just accept that not everybody will always
agree with your opinions, despite how informed and experienced they
are.)
