conclusion 

sorry for the empowerment speak
wouldn't get so lofty if you didn't hold the ring of power, frodo
            (at least i hope you have it because i've asked around & nobody else thinks they have it)

Internet has done a phenomenal job at dramatically reducing the space in between people who want to communicate
next job is to reduce the space between the people who want to communicate and the Internet
that's an increasing proportion of your job today
it will continue to increase in the future
if part of that means making parts of your job unnecessary,
                we promise we'll make more messy technology
making parts of your job unnecessary should be your 
                overriding professional concern for this decade

if sysadmin job security ever becomes a top problem of the Internet, 
        i promise i'll give another invited talk on what you should do next
