(Big ISP NOC) > Of course, we don't want to get into a debate on the relative merits of NANOG or RIPE speakers on this list, but given this comment... Rob Thomas is an excellent speaker. He has his own distinctive style, but the best speakers do. Many NANOG and RIPE speakers are, to put in likely, a bit dull. Given the subject matter, this is excusable, but we should be happy to see the occasional speaker like Rob or Bill Norton, who is willing to take the extra effort to inject a vein of humor or excitement into their talks. Its easy to throw stones, but if one is truly unhappy with the quality of speakers at NANOG, their course of action is clear - immediately submit a speaking proposal to Susan. - Daniel Golding
