Actually David, while I do think you do need to expose yourself more
to new ideas and see if they can bring benefits to you, I also think
your views _are_ applicable.

Stephen likes to talk about the large internet focused companies with
a requirement for massive amounts of automation and web based stuff
and that is certainly a valid requirement. However, by number, those
companies are not the majority of the companies in existence and all
the different types of companies have different requirements.

What you bring to the table is detailed real-world knowledge of actual
computing business requirements in a different type of company.

Simon.
