Thank you very much for the spam. It is appreciated by all I'm sure.
Hopefully people do not contribute to yet another CCIE rack site that uses
GS to spam. I am amazed this is being allowed. But, I guess that's what
happens when you have a "partnership."

Does anyone else see a conflict of interest here? Other vendors have been
pushed off the list yet Howard is allowed to frequently spam here. Someone
even told me that all cc-bootcmp messages are being filtered because they
want to keep their competition off the list. I don't know if this is true,
so I guess I'll have to try a test message to see if they filter it.

Besides, who wants to read CCIE prep material from a guy that hasn't even
passed the lab! Howard does us all a favor and please go take the lab.
You're so awesome with all your books and work on the IETF so it should be a
breeze. No excuses!
