[Job-Discussions] Looking for my next information technology job in St. Louis, Missouri

[Michael Walker]

Robert, I just subscribed to the NFB Jobs List you mentioned.  I thought 
I would post my questions here though, since the NFB Jobs List is 
announce only, and this one is for discussions about jobs, from the list 
descriptions I read.

Thank you,

Mike
