in reply to The Word from O'Reilly

Oh, how I love O'Reilly! Finally a company that understands common sense, puts out a quality product, and gives back to the community. If they didn't have their HQs in Sebastopol (yuk) I would want to work there.

    Their "other" headquarters is in Cambridge (MA). Or, you can be like Larry, and work for O'Reilly, and yet never leave the house.

    Why do you think you must be in Sebastopol? I've made 20% of my income for the past 10 years from checks that say O'Reilly, and have never set foot in the Sebastopol office! {grin}

      Cambridge is too far away from the Good Old Silicon Valley. As for working at home, I wouldn't want to do that....something enticing about a cube farm.
