+Sam started on FreeBSD some time around 1998.  Becoming a ports committer in April 2005 provided an excellent tool for avoiding university assignments.  Regardless, he managed to finish his degree in 2007 and is now employed in the dirt digging industry while studying for another piece of paper related to digging up dirt.

 In the days BC (Before Computers) John worked as a Radio Tradesman in the avionics industry. John remembers fondly a commodity called, "Spare Time". He hasn't been able to find any of it since becoming involved with computers in the early '80's, but used to devote it to music (yes, the Highland Bagpipe is a musical instrument) and amateur radio (VK2EGI).
+During 2016, after only 22 years' struggle, John gave up trying to argue with burnout and took up casual work as a traffic controller.
