that would be a great opportunity. That part of Virginia (between Blacksburg and the West Virginia border) is beautiful. I hope the job goes to a Wallster!

Job Opportunity
I don't know if this kind of thing is allowed on the Wall but I found help from the professionals here and thought I might be able to return the favor to someone by posting this. I'm sorry if its against the rules.
This sounded to me like it might appeal to someone here. I have no association with these folks. Just ran across the announcement on another email list I belong to.
