For starters, the person listed as "Department Director" (and per this list, that is the actual title) is a woman. Can you name her? How about the Security Administrator? (Or is that you?) What about the Database Administrator? What's her name, Simon?

Unless you're a bald-faced liar, you should be able to name at least one of these people. Let the dodges and the excuses commence!



No, you do not have a list of any employees at the hospital (aside from medical personnel, which list is easy to get).

To your credit, I believe you have a list of 23 names, probably the names of all the voices in your head whom you endearingly refer to as "informants."

There's dodge number one! You'd think the questions would be extremely easy to answer....

Uh, Simon. Exactly how difficult do you think it is to acquire such a list? My impression is that Doctor Scratch is not bluffing here.

Whether or not Scratch acquired such a list is immaterial. Every poster on this board is entitled to his/her privacy and his/her anonymity. Simon has revealed as much as he has chosen to reveal regarding his career.

If Simon is using an alias, and does not want us to know exactly who he is, he very well could have disguised his title slightly so that it would not be easily discovered.

Also...large corporations, such as hospitals, tend to have literally 100's of employees who are not necessarily listed on a general list that is available on a company website.

I am giving Simon, as I give everyone here, the benefit of the doubt at face value.

Scratch, please be careful. You are running very close to the line of violating board rule #7:

Do not reveal personal or "in real life" information about any poster on this site that he or she has not explicitly revealed here. This includes avoiding mention of his/her actual first or last name, even if he or she has made it available on some other website.

Don't worry, Liz. I have no intention of violating the rule.

I expected that you'd back up your buddy.

Some of the people I manage are on the web development team, so I am pretty sure I know what's available on the website.

In any case, I'll patiently await my expose on Scratch's blog.

Simon,

I have no reason to doubt that you are an IT director. I have to admit I'm curious about your company org chart though. You are part of a "black ops" data center group--are you an outsourcer?

And this data center group has multiple web developers? Dev is managed by the IT director as part of the "data center"?

I guess a hospital might not need a whole lot of dev, so they could throw these folks in with IT, but for you to know everything these guys are working on and managing software releases in addition to network, DBAs, servers, desktop, messaging, security, and data center junk, it must be a very small shop. But "a few" developers isn't one or two, either.

Why does any of this matter? What will you guys want next, my W2? Webdev is handled by a contractor which I hired. They work under my direction. Okay? Enough.

Great points, Dean Robbers. There are elements of Simon's story that just don't add up.

I'm not interested in your W2 or any of your personal information. However, we share an interest in the corporate world and its infrastructure; I'm just trying to have a conversation about a topic we both like, that isn't "anti-Mormon".

The website isn't bad, but it could be improved. For instance, one thing a visitor would like to see immediately is a layout of the campus. It's nice that you've got google maps embedded but I've always questioned the real value this adds. A map of the campus that shows buildings, parking, and all the stuff a visitor needs to navigate would be great. Thanks for considering it.

Old Wilton is quite the straggler eh? How you got that bad boy roped in -- IP over Sonnet, or by some ancient frac T1/FR build that goes down twice a week? I know these hospitals are slow movers. If you tell me you've given all the old Centillions the boot from your IDFs that were one-armed by some rusted-out ATM blade on a Cat6513 or BLN I'll be impressed. I'll be even more impressed if you've ditched the Banyan Vines and forced your over-the-hill Schryver types to upgrade their IBM crap so you don't have to inter-operate with SNA over token ring. And please tell me for this web project that you've at least put a rickety old CSS in front of your web boxes and that you have distributed application/database layers and don't run everything on one or two Pentium II's running Windows 4.0 making calls to itself.

P.S. Add wiring closet locations etc. to that campus map, thanks in advance; helps guys like me visualize. And if there is anything you'd like to know about the infrastructure at Cassius, let me know. I believe a conversation is a two-way street.
