    I don't mind that you're posting job listings, but I've got a big problem with this one. (Recruiters, listen up!) It's completely useless to post a job listing that doesn't include the location of the opening!! It drives me crazy when I have no idea whether the job is in my area. Weathernews seems to have 35 locations around the world, one of which is right here, but it's not worth my time to send a resume if there's a 3% chance that I'd be able to take the job without relocating.

    Yeah, I noticed that too... it was posted on BACFUG so I'll ask the person who posted it and get a clarification...

    Updated to say it's in San Francisco (per Jennifer Larkin on the BACFUG list).
