sound for games jobs (fwd)

[Hiroko Shiraiwa-Terasawa]

How are you doing these days? I just passed my quals
today, will enjoy the short weekend, and get started with
the fall quarter. Just cannot believe it will be two years
since we all met, and I am TAing 220A.. hope this year 
students are not as picky as we were. ;-)

Here's a job posting, which might be of your interest.
This game company is looking for an "Audio Guru" (!)
