Yeah, I get invites all the time from people outside the industry - I
always deny them.  I have about 60 contacts that are power players, VP's
and CEO's of manufacturers and distributors, plus alarmco owners.  I
always screen them before clicking "accept".

I never even considered adding my contacts to my resume, that would be a
violation of their trust.

I mostly lurk in the forums.  There is good stuff to be found, especially
if you need to contact a high-level executive for a particular company.

Thanks, you too.
