    Hello folks!

    I've been trolling these forums for information for years. I thought I'd register and actually participate a bit.

    My name is Eric AKA vtel57 AKA The Nocturnal Slacker. I own/admin/moderate a few general topic and tech forums here and there on the Net. I also write a couple blogs; one general topic, the other technical (info in my website URL in my Profile).

    I've been using GNU/Linux (Slackware) as my primary operating system on all my machines for about 6 years now. I'm not a guru by any means, but I enjoy learning and passing my experience on to others.

    I can be found daily at:

    Scot's Newsletter Forums - Bruno's All Things Linux
    Jeremy's LinuxQuestions.org
    Linux.com | community
    and a few other fine Linux/tech sites. Chase me down. We'll have a chat.

    In the meantime, thanks for the opportunity to join this community and maybe give some back to it.

    Regards,

    ~Eric

    You just wait! When you've made about 50 posts, they'll classify you as a newbie.

    COOL! Minus that tattoos (can't afford them), you just described me...

    Sadly though, my hair's not as long now, I'm about 40 lbs lighter, and I no longer have my Harley (financial stress). I'm counting on the lottery win to square me up, though.

    Regards,

    ~Eric

    Hello and Welcome.
    I'm sure you'll fit right in around here. We're a pretty loose bunch and we enjoy good company.
    I do not respond to private messages asking for Linux help, Please keep it on the forums only.

    Hiya, Mike!

    Like I really need another Linux forum, right? Well, they're like Lays potato chips, you know.

    Thanks for the welcome.
