		<title>Electronics: Great hobby, or greatest hobby?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Like many kids of my generation with a geeky slant, I gravitated towards electronics. I&#8217;d take apart whatever junk I could get a hold of, and with my next door neighbor being a ham radio operator with lots of junk to get rid of, that was plenty. VCRs, televisions, radios.. They all fell to my [...]]]></description>

		<title>A SOAP kstat server for Solaris</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m learning Ruby, and as an early project, I thought I&#8217;d write a little SOAP server for exposing Solaris &#8220;kstat&#8221; output to the network. It&#8217;s embryonic, but it works. I&#8217;d like to do a little more input sanitation, since it&#8217;s certainly possible to really hurt your server by requesting a kstat value of &#8220;::&#8221; (which [...]]]></description>
