Message-ID: <C190DD93.2AF36%david@luyer.net>

Hi,

I will be visiting Perth for this weekend (arriving Saturday morning,
leaving Sunday night).

If everything goes to plan, I will be leaving Australia by the end of the
year and moving to California (I should be signing a contract in the
next couple of days so I'll be able to mention where I'm going on the
weekend).

To celebrate, would like to do pizza on Saturday night to catch up
with everyone, followed by drinks somewhere :-)

Anyone interested or with a better suggestion send me a direct email.

Thanks,
David.

At least 4 as of January next year... probably more.  I was surprised how
many 
ex Australian ISP industry people there are over there, too.

Seems that there's a lack of "talent" over there.

I got a call last week offering a position with Perl programming,
on the strength of a paper that I'm presenting at a conference in
Melbourne next week.

They're really scarping the bottom of the barrel. :-)

Not quite... close... 1983 or 1984 I think was the last time.

I suppose that that makes me an "unmentionable".

Saw a few of the above crowd at the big UCC dinner 2 years ago but I
got lucky and none of them showed at this year's (10000th - binary)
dinner, so I won the "oldest club member" bottle of red. :-)

I've been running my own tech (mainly IT) conslutancy since 1999
when my previous employer went into liquidation while I was in
Europe, 2 weeks into a 10-week holiday.

I keep meaning to say that jobs pay more here but not as much more as 
they used to.. and the US dollar is about to collapse so don't bring any 
money here or it'll go down the gurgler with the USD...

when the USD drops it'll be harder to save money here than in  Perth for 
sure.
