>> Books that no DBA should be without, in no particular order:

Hmmm, I have all of them and have even read them. Does that make me a DBA :o)

Now, on the subject of books, your one on Perl for the Oracle DBA is quite good (!) too, any plans to do one called 'How to read Perl Scripts You Wrote or Inherited, for the Oracle DBA' ? I don't do much Perl, I admit, but I do find it easier to write (provided I have an idiot's guide handy) than to read afterwards.

Cheers,
