I totally sent a letter to apply :D
Dunno if San Fran residency is required, so I'm staying outta this. I think I'd do well in the GM part of the job since I've had the experience as a moderator on two boards, which regrettably are now dead. Of course being a forum mod and a GM are similar, yet different at the same time. As for the HTML-ing, that's where I'm a bit on the rusty side.
