Congratulations. Enjoy! Let me know how the bean-bag office chairs are. ;)

he's not replied so far, so I'm guessing they are well into replacing Darren
with an exact Android replica.  All that niceness is just PR to tease bright
minds into being assimilated... ;p

I must admit, it would be incredibly awesome to be allowed to tell you folks 
all the cool stuff I learned this week. :-)

I'll be in the Irvine CA USA office, which is just south of LA, about 75 
miles north of where I live. Commuting will be problematic, so I'm still 
working on that angle. :-) Between where 405 and 73 get real close together, 
if anyone wants to look it up on google maps or something.

To everyone else, thanks for the congrats's!

To be honest, I'm just bitter that Darren applied to Google, and they 
just *hired* him. I mean, as if that happens in the real world...

But hey, that's just me.

It's not like it didn't take multiple tries. :-)

Oh, right.

OK, that makes it significantly less implausible...
