Hey sysop, what mainframe?
I didn't even know they were still around.
I loved
Edit: Forgot to answer your question: It's a fairly recent IBM model they call the Z-10, but it's basically the same platform. MVS with JES3 running on top of it.
HA! I'm afraid I'm one of a "dying breed." I'm full of "dead knowledge."
HA! The only Ops around here anymore are either crazy or just trying to put in a few more years towards retirement.
I'm both of the above...

Just got out of the Coast Guard and now I'm about to work on Off Shore Supply Vessels in the norther gulf. I also build engines in my spare time for drag cars
I breed South American cichlids- Angelfish and dwarf cichlids like apistogrammas and attempting the rams again. I also breed the South American Endler's livebearer, some guppies and I did have some South American Mollies and Swordtails. I am out of those right now.
"Lake" cichlids are African. Like Lake Victoria and Lake Tanganyika.

Always had respect for good engine builders LS1, there is an art to that, maybe more than art.
I work in an electrical workshop repairing aircraft parts - mostly control panels, batteries, lighting, power supplies etc. In my younger days I operated earthmoving machinery (plant operator), truck driving, retail sales, music shop, engineering and construction worker. Hobbies change with the seasons it seems, but rock music and motorbikes have been consistent. Winding the occasional coil and mixing juice is keeping me interested and busy at the moment

Yeah it is. You should Google a komatsu 575 superdozer. I've only got to be in one once but, they dwarf the D11

IT Manager in medical imaging. Manager is a bit of a stretch as I am the only person. I make the LEDs blink so people can look at cute kittehs on the Interents 
Manipulating and propagating longitudinal waves of compressions and rarefactions in the atmosphere for your enjoyment, typically in the measurable range of 20Hz-20000Hz, except when I'm frequency modulating something, then it can get kind of weird.
