do you live in san francisco? i do. i happen to know most of the people who
attended the cocktail hour (i recognized them in the photos) and i am very
familiar with their work.

i don't think the cocktail hour was conceived so that ia's could
commiserate in misery. but i could be wrong?

>Why the unnecessary tone of dismissiveness?

my tone wasn't dismissive. in fact, i have a great deal of respect for noel
and ciq (and method and small pond...). i guess you wouldn't know that
because you're not here and you don't know any of them. apology accepted.

and i never said that these sorts of things weren't interesting to me but
rather that i learned them years ago and have a desire to discuss more
advanced concepts.

as for your job offer. thanks but i'm doing quite well on my own.
