I do not think you should lie, but leaving out irrelevant
information and shortening the resume makes sense.
Someone told me a resume should catch an eye in the
first paragraph and fit on one page. I personally
know managers who move 3 page resume at the bottom of
the pile so they do not have to read it right now.
The Wolf.
BTW good article about getting jobs and negotiating
the terms of employment:

Anthony,
Does that mean we should lie, leave out, etc?

As a recruiter I do work with people that are 40+ in years. If I have one
suggestion to people who fall into that category(40+) it would be to only
list what you've done in the last 5 to 6 years. What disqualifies many of
my 40+ candidates is a resume that has 15 to 20+ years experience working
with computers.
So far my organization hasn't identified any qualified candidates to fill
the Linux programmer position. I guess I'm throwing my fishing pole into
the lake to see if anyone will bite. I appreciate your suggestions that
have been listed, and any future suggestions that you may have. Please feel
free to call me if anyone has a few minutes to talk to help me out.
