    'Code Monkeys' V 'Systems Monkeys'

    Who are in the greater demand?

    With all the software development going to India I'd say it's the 'Systems Monkeys' that are in greater demand. There is only so much you can do remotely.

            'Code Monkeys' always seem to have a personal hygiene problem. Why is that?

                  How about Chino? Is he a relative of Chico? Has he pestered the others with the Alpha courses already?
                  I've seen much of the rest of the world. It is brutal and cruel and dark, Rome is the light.
