(There seems to be a wealth of such opportunities on the East Coast, but my wife's work is in support of the DoD and thus I'm effectively tied to the L.A. area.) I'm serious. I've been managing with part-time security advisory work for NASA coupled with independent consulting gigs (following the massive RIF at OneSecure in July), and I have yet to find a company that isn't in the throes of downsizing (if not outright eliminating) any and every computer and network security department they have. This makes for some pretty thin job opportunities. Someone please provide information to the contrary if they think I'm wrong. :) - -Jay ( ( _______ )) )) .-"There's always time for a good cup of coffee"-. >====<--. C|~~|C|~~| (>----- Jay D.
