Ahhh, I could make a forensic data collection expert out of you in no time.  :)

FYI: nc is in our standard book of tricks, but having done data
collection for 5+yrs, I've never had to use it.  Obviously I'm not
senior enough for those skills.

But seriously, I have book lerning.  I can do the job.  Trust me.
