Spam is expected on alt.*, etc., but csu.unix.linux!?!  It makes me want
to cry.

Well, it was also posted in csu.cs.jobs, so it ain't all bad.

I saw that, and I removed the cross post from my reply, but why do they
have to post it to csu.unix.linux.  That's like invading my home.  The
whole reason csu.cs.jobs exists is so we don't have to read that stuff
on csu.unix.linux.  Those of us interested in jobs read csu.cs.jobs
regularly.

We're looking for someome who knows linux. If have any friends that want
to
work with linux (and some other unix's) over the summer and into the
school
year, let 'em know about this job.

We're clustering linux to run weather models (beowulfing) and putting it
on
researchers desktops. The job is to help support these systems (I
believe...)

Anyway, this is a great oppurtunity, if you're interested, please stop
by
(Thorson's office, not mine.)

<drool> Will you pay more than the pitiance of a student paycheck?
Do you get free rides on the NexRAD antenna?  How about a retirement
plan?

Oh, and I don't think this was spam.  They didn't try to sell you 
anything.  If anything, I'm flattered that someone is intentionally
/looking/ for Linux admins -- enough that they care enough to target
the message.  Also that they know enough about the rest of the 
internet (eg, everthing other than the WWW) to actually find the 
right newsgroup.  If you like Linux, GET THIS JOB.

ObRetirement: I think I have $17 of retirement money through TIAA-
CREF from my years at CTV.  I'm going to use it to invest in some
shares of Microsoft, I'm thinking.

It wasn't awful spam, just not quite on topic when other, more
appropriate, newsgroups were available.  And you're right, it does sound
like a killer job,
if just for the beowulf!  Should I apply?  Would they even consider me
after I ripped on their post? :)

You may as well. They at least know that you won't fool around. I'd go
for it, except it's way out on LaPorte. Tad far for a bike ride.

Na, I'm out of town this summer and I already have a workstudy job next
year, but one of us Linux geeks should take it so we can get some good
beowolf advice here at csu.unix.linux.
