I hope you will still stick around to talk with us!

I certainly will. It remains to be seen whether any future employer will be as forgiving of my empeg BBS habit, or whether I'll have to restrict myself to posting from home.

If you are ever in the US snowboarding, let us know too

Hell yes. My next planned snowboard trip is next Easter, to the Alps, but I'd like to come over to the US at some point.
