On Wed, 6 Dec 2000,Jeffery Stevenson scribbled on the wall in glitter crayon:

-> What we need is a DBA simulator...a virtual reality cubicle where you are
->constantly berated and harassed by AI managers and developers while you are
->trying to fix their problems via your virtual workstation. To add realism,
->we could make it a 3-5 day simulation where it has one of the virtual
->managers call you at 3 in the morning jumping up and down screaming, "The
->database is broke! The database is broke!" Of course, the programmer,
->system and network AIs will randomly spread the blame between the database
->and the others...and after determining that it isn't a database problem,
->they'll insist that you stay up and "watch the database and give them a full
->report"--just to be sure. It could have the dual purpose of better testing
->the extent of someone's capabilities and scaring away the meek all in one
->fell swoop. :)

only if i get vurtial automatic weapons and high explosives;-)

ooppss... that server doesn't seem to be there anymore.;-)
