[geeks] Resume idea

[Chris Byrne]

Lionel,

The point is not to replace the resume with a stats table. There is
still a full resume. The skills table is the first page of my resume and
includes my relevant sills with years of experience as well as my
professional certifications. It can easily be removed or moved to the
back of the resume, but for a contractor this sort of thing has become
almost de rigeur as often contracting agenices will present something
similar to a client rather than a complete reume.
