I'm really very flattered by the welcome; thank you. Also I'm pretty psyched to be invited to help.
Just FYI, I did not ask to moderate Programmer Certification. There was (to me) an appearance of self-promotion to that, and I didn't want fans (not to mention authors!) of Khalid or Brogden et al to feel there was any hint of favoritism. I will still continue to help here where I can. Go ahead, stump the Certified, I dare ya!
I must now declare
Java (Intermediate) and RMI/CORBA to be the most happenin' forums here!
Shyam - there will be other anagrams, my friend. You have been warned.
