The real answer is I do trouble shooting on large scale computer systems mostly SANs. My title is one that I don't use as it shortens to a dirty word, you'd think a fortune 500 company would know better.

I assume your talking about the BFG plant thats on the old Eutaw hwy. If so just south of it (1 mile) is where I spent many summers helping my grandad plow the feilds and such. On the left side of the hwy heading south all of those subdivisions used to be our farm. Grandad was getting too old to care for it, and didnt have any boys to take over the farm so he sold it off parcel by parcel my mom finally sold the house and last 5 acres in 90 after they passed. That was the first and for the longest time the only factory I had ever seen.

 

I'm VP of Search Technology and ironically enough working on building a search engine which crawls and indexes vBulletin forums.

Anyone think that a more powerful search engine would help this site?
