I sure hope that is allowed. I hereby propose a tutorial session
conducted in the water. If the waves are slight, we can bring a white
board!

For the record, I am not making the SCO story up.

When I was there, the record was 22 engineers in that hottub - and the
true story is much funnier than as above told but I dare not write it
down.

To me the funniest part about all this was that SCO was the first
"big" california company I ever worked for, and within hours of that
first day at work, I was in that hottub with a multitude of other
co-workers.

For years, I naively thought that was "just how californians worked,
normally..."

I was (and am) quite sad, that that is not the case anywhere else I
have ever worked (except at my own company!)

Ahh... the good old days...
