I do not wish to commit to a course of action on a unilateral basis, so in all fairness to the membership, I will do what Glenn did not: Ask what you think. I've gotten a few emails from people who wanted to know more details than my fatigued brain remembered to put in, which is the only reason I sent multiple postings. Normally I am not a Bloody Viking. I apologize for the repeat postings. I do note in passing that I am unaware of any objections to other members seeking gainful employment via this mailing list-- which is what I did too.
