I appreciate that, Steve. It's a bit more difficult for me because I' not really a sysadmin. I'm a developer who's basically been forced into the sysadmin position due to circumstances. Fortunately there are good books, and reading this list has been a great help. But some things I've found on the internet are problematical. I take what I read from most sites with a grain of salt.
