I haven't been around this group much recently, and I may not be
around it much in
the future, ether.  As of the end of May, 1007, I have accepted
"Enahnced Early
Retirement" (EERP) from HP.  Given my circumstances the "enhancement"
--
14 months salary added to my retiremenet -- was something I could not
walk
away from.

I hope I can find some full or part time work dealy with the OpenVMS
operating
system for the nexe 4-5 years -- that's how long my wife has to work
to be fully
vested in her company's retirement benefits.  SOooo..

If you know of any jobs in the Palm Beach/Broward area of South
Florida, please
let me know if I might be a good fit.  Or pass my name along.  I have
25+ years
working as a programmer, analyst and software engineer on OpenVMS.

My personal email is Charles Hammond at Net Zero dot com
*** There is no space between my first and last names nor between NET
and ZERO.

Thanks for any help.

And, just so there is some SCUBA contact, one of the good things about
this is
that I will be free to go divine pretty much any time.  I LIKE that!
