Re: (Fm Originator) Where are u from -- A great idea !!

Chris,

In the very first place that was exactly my intention - we could attach our location to the messages. I didn't expect such an overwhelming response on this topic. Well since we've already had so many responses, I'll try find some time and compile it in a Doc and post it to the list. Anybody's info missing in the Doc could be updated later on. I'll wait for another couple of days before I start it. It's been really amazing to know DBAs from all around the Globe.

The most important thing to note here is that while it's night time here in US, there's always somebody in another part of the world to give a comforting company to the DBA trying to resolve a critical production problem in the middle of the night (and, of course, the other way around too).

Thanks to all of you for keeping this list so informative and helpful.
