Wow. That was a long time ago.

It's funny that you brought this up though. I actually used the BEU as an
answer to an interview question a couple of weeks ago. :)

What have you done that has worked better as being part of a team, than it
would have if you worked alone?

Glad to see you are still lurking out there :)
