[PLUG] Thursday meeting is on!

[Brian P. Martin]

Michael is on vacation, and may have forgotten to send out an 
announcement.  So, I'll do it myself.  I don't think I have posting 
permissions on the announce list though, so perhaps someone who does 
could rebroadcast it there.  And it would be good if someone could touch 
base with PSU, just to make sure they know we're coming.

Portland Linux/Unix Group General Meeting Announcement

Who: Brian Martin
What: A Philosophy for Reliability: Lessons learned from 40 years of System Administration
Where: PSU, 1930 SW 4th Ave. Room FAB 86-01 (Lower Level)
When: Thursday, September 7th, 2017 at 7pm
Why: The pursuit of technology freedom

After spending 40 years being a System Administrator, frequent PLUG attendee Brian Martin will share what he's learned in his quest to be the best System Administrator he could be. While primarily targeted at system administration, many of his points are equally applicable to programmers, web developers, and anyone working in IT.

Bring your questions and experiences for a vibrant discussion.

Bio: Brian first laid hands on a computer in 1970.  He earned his first money in IT ($5) in high school, and continued contract programming through college.  After working for many years as a system programmer in government and private industry he began his own consulting company in 1994.  He relocated to Portland in 1996 in the successful pursuit of love, and has been here ever since.  He lives with his wife and and a pair of dogs on the west side.  He enjoys eating out with friends, live performances of jazz, comedy, and Shakespeare, games of all kinds, and hopes to return to hiking and photography in retirement.

Tim Bruce will be chairing the meeting.  With Michael gone, Tim in the chair, and Brian speaking, it should truly be a case of the inmates running the asylum.

Many will head to the Lucky Lab at 1945 NW Quimby St. after the meeting.
