benson, even if these mega proj are possible, to put that in where the obvious benefit is to allow people further away from Man to get into Man faster is not optimal use of such stimulus $$$. That type of mega proj need to yield more jobs/business for the city (vs. a commute convenience into Man). how about infrastructure & tax incentive to draw in more hi tech or biotech firms into the city limits? how about revitalize light to no-use former industrial areas in the city? city is still largely 1-trick pony as far as tax rev source (ie still heavily dependent on finance industry)
CGar, I am sure you can write great letters. Try to make sure it’s not the same Thank You letter to all three. Adjust each a little bit and if you discussed anything interesting during the interview, make sure you mention it in the letter how you like when person A commented about instance B and so on so forth.
Make sure you don’t mix OT talk with Thank you letter talk as DIBS tends to do between here and silverdaddies.
“the obvious benefit is to allow . . . Man to get into Man faster”
I’m sorry. I must’ve missed the segue.
If you love someone, you’ll buy them a present when the mood strikes you not just for a scheduled occasion.

Yeah, that’s true. But as a straight guy, if you f-k up and don’t get your wife or girlfriend something on Valentine’s Day, you’re asking for trouble.
Why such a frosty, bitchy response?? Oh, sorry, I forgot to whom I was talking.

Actually, “jobs and job security” seems to be the dark horse OT topic around here.

Dave, I’m not going back to that thread. I recommended a place. That’s it from me.

Kens, remind me to tell you that the blog came up during one of my interviews!

Thanks, ET. I could pick apart your sexually innuendo filled thank you email. But methinks it’s best to quit while I’m ahead.
