In this session our speaker will show how Michael Jackson, Will Smith, Jeff
Goldblum and countless others have saved the world with mainframe computers
being the true hero in every Hollywood plot. This presentation is either going
to get an award for being the funniest thing SHARE has ever presented, or else
the speaker is going to get the record lowest score and the most number of
social media dislikes for being extremely unfunny. Either way folks seeing it
hopefully won't forget it. With any luck they'll remember it for the right
reasons and come away reflecting on what motived them to enter mainframe
computing and have a fresh to-do list of movies to catch up with and music
tracks to listen to next time they're struggling to read a syslog or debug an
abend.
