A seperate, somber announcement: Mark Hoffman - K2AXX - is leaving The Company.
Mark is a brilliant engineer when it comes to anything with a radio onboard. The man has his own giant tower in his backyard for fucks sake. He's also damn sharp with the fundamentals of networking. I've often considered him not just a contact in another department, but as a delegate I can trust to keep things clean on the engineering side of the building. When you work - day in and out - with products that have the potential to utterly decimate a wired ethernet situation (implemented improperly), that's where people like Mark come in. Not only reliable for knowing at a moment's notice what exactly is going on in the lab, but has never failed to own up and take responsibility for a test gone awry, unlike so many of the engineering folk.
Mark is leaving GE MDS for a different set of challenges still in the Rochester area - and he's one of the select few people that this organization will never be able to replace. He leaves behind a legacy - a lab built from the ground up, but a team of well-trained monk-... Product Assurance Group associates (Or 'paggets', depending on the nature of the day... see my most immediately previous post for insight.)
Good luck, my friend. May the deity of your choice smile favorably upon your selected path.
