Looking for a position into which I can grow (meaning that there are
things I still need to learn, but who wants to hire someone who has
already been doing them for the last X years, in order to continue
doing them for *another* X years?), in either or both of these areas
[for example, sysadmin for large techpubs group + limited writing
duties,] in Atlanta, GA -- academic, as well as commercial sites, are
encouraged to reply.
