Hi folks, this is Jay Pipes, the author of the slide decks in question...someone notified me via email that these slides were up online.

I had no idea those slides were even up online! People tend to take the slides from my website (http://jpipes.com) and post them on various websites without my knowledge, which is perfectly fine. :)

Those slides are also quite old (2+ years now). I've done many presentations since then and have a number of alternate slide decks which you may find useful. Here are the links to download PDFs from my website.

How to ensure that [some] people won't read your post: require Flash.

You would probably be better off complaining to slideshare.net or the original author of the slideshow for posting it there.

Take away the "Flash" issue, I actually found the content useful.
