(Apologies to anyone seeing this a second time.  I sent it to
bblisa earlier, and it was suggested, I think correctly, that
I send it here as well.)

A consulting client of mine in Cambridge has this position 
open.  If you're interested, please touch base with me.
If you're interested, please send me your resume or, preferably,
a pointer to your resume online.
