You're right--however I believe it's recently been updated, although I'm
not sure what they changed on the posting.

Definitely! To put it in perspective, I've heard that the bulk of the
applications have been from people who may have done something in MS
Access before, some may have entered data in a table in an MS SQL database
to which they didn't have admin rights to, stuff like that. In my own
opinion (which is meaningless since I'm speaking solely as myself and not
as an ACS person), 6 years of Oracle DBA experience would indicate among
other things that you have a good knowledge of relational database theory
and design, that you understand the effects of database tuning vs.
performance, and also that you're perfectly capable of learning DB2. If
you're interested, I would definitely encourage you to apply!

Nah, you don't want to work for them--they hire people like Leif! ;-)
