Thank you for answering the question.  Let me explain my point of view on the exchange.

I worked for a company in Birmingham AL for about 6 years from Seattle.  I had Birmingham insurance, Birmingham HR people etc, but I was remote.  I thought perhaps it was not clear if one could be a satellite employee for one of those offices or not.

I felt that when you basically cut and pasted your response to me, that you were irritated by my question and answering me in a rude way.  I was not trying to troll the thread, but now it may appear to be the opposite.  

I have a lot of respect for what you guys have done with Plan 9 and AOE, and think it's an interesting business, but suddenly I felt that perhaps I wouldn't have a compatible personality with the boss.

Anyway, I'd like to reboot the discussion, but it's in the archives now :-).

I do wish you, very sincerely, to have continued success with your business.

Dave
