    Interesting, but I don't think I'm qualified. If I were any good a fundraising I wouldn't need a job.

      As I am relocating and preparing for semi-retirement, that would be a great gig if I had any fundraising...or social skills in general. Now if they needed a nerdy engineer, on the other hand...

        Actually you don't need social skills, or computer skills to be a successful fundraiser. I've found two simple tools to be very effective, a .38 revolver and a ski mask. Used properly people are very willing to donate, and quite generously. Another way is to form a government, but that is a bit more complicated....

        Government ain't that complicated....take until they got no more then take some more and do nothing in return....
        As for the .38 and mask....I wouldn't do good in jail being as cute as I am and all that....
        Anyway, I don't have the credentials, I'm not the guy for this job.
