Hey Mike you will like Colorado. Although being your going to Broomfield (suberb of Denver) there are LOTS of team sports there (bootball,baseball,hockey...) in Denver - you'll have to fight that I guess since you not into them. :^)<br>

Hello Colorado! My name is Mike Conigliaro, and I'll be relocating to<br>
Broomfield from New Haven Connecticut at the end of the month. Since I<br>
don't really know anyone out there at the moment, I decided I should start<br>
trying to make some new contacts. Having been a Linux user (both personally<br>
and professionally) and an open-source advocate for over 10 years now (not<br>
to mention the fact that I'll be looking for work once I'm out there ;-), I<br>
figured a Linux users group would be one good place to start doing that.<br>
<br>

<br>
If you're old enough to be wondering, yes, I am a distant relative of Tony<br>
Conigliaro of the Boston Red Sox (though I couldn't care less about<br>
baseball, or any other team sport for that matter ;-)<br>
<br>
I graduated from Southern Connecticut State University in 2003 with a BS in<br>
Computer Science.<br>
<br>
I am Red Hat Certified Engineer #805009592042441. I happened to notice that<br>
you guys have occasional certification study groups, and while I don't know<br>
if any of you are studying for the RHCE exam at the moment, I thought I'd<br>
make myself available to answer any questions you might have about it<br>
(short of giving away info that breaks the Red Hat NDA of course). You<br>
might also be interested in my blog about my exam experience<br>
(<a href="http://conigliaro.org/2009/09/08/my-rhce-exam-experience/" target="_blank">http://conigliaro.org/2009/09/08/my-rhce-exam-experience/</a>) and my "RHCE<br>
Cheat Sheet" (<a href="http://conigliaro.org/wiki/rhce" target="_blank">http://conigliaro.org/wiki/rhce</a>).<br>
<br>
I currently maintain a few small open-source projects, the most popular of<br>
which is probably NagiosPluginsNT (a collection of Nagios plugins for<br>
monitoring Windows machines remotely).<br>
<br>
</stuff about me><br>
<br>
Anyway, you guys have a pretty nice state out there, and I'm excited to be<br>
moving to it! I've been an avid skateboarder and snowboarder for almost 20<br>
years now, and judging by what I've seen of Colorado so far, I think I'm<br>
going to be spending a *lot* less time sitting in front of my computer.<br>
Seeya in a couple weeks!<br>
