 I have been a professional programmer for 20 years, with most of that time
 spent doing UNIX/C/C++ hacking.  My specialties are (in no particular
 order): system/kernel hacking, speech recognition, perl, object-oriented
 design and analysis, FSF software (I have built nearly every FSF package on
 several different platforms), small language design and implementation, and
-HTML/web programming.  Currently I'm a member of the XEmacs beta testing
-team - I'm responsible for maintaining the version 19.15 patches and have
-written a few small packages/lisp hacks.  My rates vary from $60 - $100 per
-hour, depending on the size of the project.
