If you would like more information please send me an email. I was unable to meet with the director today as he is unavailable, however once I do I will be able to provide contact information for the school.

Good luck with what I assume to be a job move - I did the same when I finished my degree! Happy I did.

Best wishes,

John,
Thanks. It’s been awhile since I’ve seen you around here. Anyhow, I’ll post more details about the new job once I feel more freedom.
I’m also enjoying my new freedom from studying. And to celebrate I started writing a textbook and a commercial web site. I"ll be posting about the commercial web site soon, once I have all the content worked out.

I’ve been around pretty regular - just don’t seem to post much. Pretty typical for me.
Happy to hear that things are going well for you. Hope your book goes well.
