Buy In Everyone who knows me knows that I absolutely love Data Warehousing. I’m one of those fortunate few who finds their work fascinating, and I tend to dive head first into new projects. I was recruited to join a team on a multi-terabyte data warehousing project late last summer. I was leery to take [...] “Shit!” I said, followed by even more graphic expletives. I lost you? Sorry, I forget that you don’t follow me around? Let me explain. Like most people, I have a junk room filled with boxes and plastic storage bins. After Thanksgiving I was in the garage looking for our stored Christmas ornaments and came across a [...] Those who read this blog know that I’ve always been into the PASS Community, particularly about attending the PASS Summit.

Let me preface the questions by saying that I fully expect the majority of people who take the time to read this will answer yes to most of them. Are you intelligent in general?
