Wes is a friend acquiring via networking and community involvement - another success story! He's based in Tampa and has been involved with the past two SQLSaturday's in Tampa. His blog - Databases, Structures, and the Damn Data Itself - is one I enjoy because he talks about life as a consultant, and he brings to the conversation the background of a economist. He's not a frequent poster this year, perhaps once or twice a month, but it's always something I enjoy reading and typically goes beyond pure technical matters. If you get the chance worth well spending an hour talking with him.
Interesting blog. I'll add it to me list for a few weeks and see what I think.
Thanks
