Career Objective:
I am looking for a work environment where computer security is given 
a high priority.  My coworkers should be knowledgeable, motivated, 
open-minded and disciplined.  If a job involves the use of closed-source
software or undocumented file formats (.doc, .ppt, etc...) I will not
do it.  So please don't bother contacting me if that is the case.
