IBM is loaded with boomers with amazing jobs and pension plans that they're eager to dump if they can. They seem to want to keep good tech people while dumping the sweet deal boomers and non-tech where possible.

He's a really good guy, and an excellent, and enthusiastic tech. One of the better folks that I've had the privilege to work with.
