[kj] OT: Alexinnyc's job

[Alexander Smith]

Thanks everyone! This is just an interview -- I have no idea what the  
position they have in mind is, or what I'd be doing or if I'm even  
qualified, but at the very least, it's an interview. Even if it turns  
out to be a hopeless cause, who knows who I might meet who might know  
someone else etc. etc. We'll see.

Thanks for everyone's support!!
