Greetings to all Enzees everywhere and welcome to the Grill!

Now, to level-set a bit on where this "grill" concept came from, I was hanging out at the house with friends and family shooting the breeze, cooking food on the outdoor grill and it sort of dawned on me that this is a lot like the virtual atmosphere in the Enzee Community. Maybe some of the analogies fall short, but the spirit of the atmosphere is what we're after.

And of course, the grill itself. A place where we toss things on the cooker, or cook-things-up, or take a raw idea to its conclusion, along with the transformation that happens from raw-to-cooked, and hopefully we won't have anything half-baked!

But keep in mind this is a grill, not a roast! So let's keep the atmosphere jovial and forward-looking, because that's where all the action is. And like any good cookout, while there's a guy flippin' the food who seems to be in charge, everyone's opinion counts. I'll write most of the entries in essay-style form, perhaps even persuasive-essay style, because this is a blog and I have opinions too - but I don't do one-liner entries (mostly)

I'd like to thank the folks at Netezza for this opportunity to interact with the Enzee community at large, and hope it becomes a very fruitful discussion for all.

In the spirit of the political season, the "inaugural" discussion will appear next!
