I am Dan
Dan I am. I have been an Oracle DBA and Oracle Application Server admin since Oracle7 and OWS 2.x. I have some certifications: OCM, OCP DBA, OCA 10gAS, RHCE, and some others that are now meaningless. I spend most of my time these days on Exadata, RAC, clustering, and high availability. I'm involved in the IOUG, the Exadata SIG, and the Norris family. I work for Oracle Corporation in the Exadata Team. The views expressed on this blog are mine and do not necessarily reflect the views of Oracle.
I'm also on Twitter as @dannorris if you'd like to follow me.

Well, you’re geekier than I expected (not by much). And you’re married to a 23% geek. How bout that!
Interesting that 23% is pretty close to 1/2 of my score. There’s probably a joke, pun, or other funny thing to say here, but I’ll leave it alone.
110.1% Geek
Those Geek badges are easy to hack. Is that sufficient for a high Geek rating? =)
Interesting questions, though. I had to cheat on the “favorite number” question; The Golden Ratio is too often trumped by the answer to life, the Universe and Everything.
