Oh, I feel better. I'm a developer (MySQL and PHP mostly) and I have 
several years of real experience. I started using Slackware in 1998. 
Naturally, I'm better at the things I'm interested in, like text 
processing (bash, perl, awk, etc.). I sort of admin a server, but all it 
requires is knowing mysql and Apache. I couldn't setup a mailing list to 
save my life. So I think I'll need to study a few things.

Cheers,
Daniel.
