John, Thanks for linking to this article I wrote. Turns out I live in Toronto too (actually, up near Aurora, but hey, it’s all the GTA). I notice you have Mike Bowler’s blog on your links list. Do you know him? I’ve been working mostly in the States, and I’d love to hook up with some local folks.

Hi Mishkin, thanks for the comment. I found your story via http://digg.com/ which I just started using yesterday.
I met Mike once at a Toronto JUG a couple of years ago, and been following his work out of interest for a little while. If you want to meet up with some of the local java folks, the JUG is problably a good place.
