David,

Thanks for taking the time to reply there. I respect your opinion.

Certainly the 'ask' in terms of CCIE preparation is high, and Im making
it..slowly..slowly..but along side of that is required energy for my
existing contract which pays the bills and family commitments at home, plus
building up my business.

So I guess I have my hands full all in!

Gorito says the jackets suck. I will buy one anyway as my jobs always got in
the way of time and energy to do this thing..although the spirit was very
willing. Did I read Caslow while waiting for a train in 2002? Yup..and a
rucksack full of such books hauled to work on the commute each day. But I
guess I already had the CCIE job.

It's happening..and as you say..what's in a number. I have 10 years
experience and it's been hard core.

Thanks
Gary
