Jx helps manage a Graphics/Multimedia/Web/eCommerce operation within an investment bank. I do a bit of everything, really: IT, people and project management, client management, strategy, business development. Unlike the other graphics bods - I'm right handed

Whirly - I think it tells us that people love talking about themselves

That we're mostly IT geeks / white collar professionals with daytime access to the Internet, which is one of the major demographic profiles of people who use Internet bulletin boards of all kinds. The other is kids.

Spacer - might be asking you for help with my homework - just started an MSc in IT at Liverpool.

AerBabe/Danza - stick at the PhD - my sister-in-law graduated last month from Nottingham after yeeeears doing hers. She was studying non-Burketts lymphoma or something - got the impression it was something to do with cancer-research.

Unfortunately I must have had the same look on my face as she does when I start telling her about dynamic roll-over or anything else helo-related...

I'm a self-employed tiler. When I have been sitting on my knees all day and have seen too much tiles I need to get far away from them. The only solution was learn to fly.

Hope you don't mind I don't wear a tie

I am in the biotech industry, working with enzymes for diverse requirements such as bad dog breath and gene therapy treatments for Gauchers and Pompes disease.

I am here at the moment playing with my 24" column...........!



.......that's chromatography....

It pays for the flying until I can get it to pay for itself.

Does this make it 9

Millipore and Amicon are the cols I use, some with a capacity of 250 litres. With the expense of some of the gels I could by myself a plane.

I have spent 9 years with my present company otherwise a background in QC with a food company.
