understood.  they are all very secretive, etc., etc. I won't screw  
this up for you.

is there a particular job you'd want?  as opposed to "i'll consider  
anything"?

I've always had the best success by identifying an opportunity that  
others don't see and going for it.  e.g, cto of the usgs or noaa or ...

you want to do something ops-oriented, I would think?  vivek is a  
policy review shop, which is of course interesting, but I would have  
thought you'd be looking for something involving touching large  
amounts of iron.
