    Oh all right, I'll do it. Just send over the stuff and a large box of money and I'll see what I can do.

    I have one question though:

    Encyclopedic understanding of ... ?

    I'm just grateful for my ability to quickly isolate pertinent information from thousands of pages of meaningless irrelevancy in the blink of any eye, oh and Scroogle.

    Agreed this kind of knowledge retrieval does incur a time penalty when compared to human memory recall.

    At this point I feel I must express grateful thanks to my autonomous nervous system, without which I would forget to breathe.

    Cat-like curiosity

    My cat has spent all morning sitting in the corner staring at the wall*

    If I can display similar skills can I have the job?

    Mmmmmm

    Well, I know how to make the border change colour on a ZX Speccy, and I can totally hack Kevin Toms Football Manager to give my team a zillion quid.

    I'm sure with suitable training I would be able to work out how PLOT, DRAW, CIRCLE and POINT work too.

    I'm ignoring the requirement for a title in the hope that it goes away.

    I can do spinning logos or flaming logos. That good enough?

    That missing sixth requirement...

    You'll be thicker skinned than a rhino in armour.

    ...since you'll get the blame for every aspect of El Reg's web-site and if you're reading the advert on the site itself then you surely already know what you're letting yourself in for.

    Oh, and by the way, the fixed width page design still sucks. My desktop monitor hasn't got any narrower and my netbook hasn't got any wider.
