That would include me. No rejection implied; I just don't use a friends list. The ongoing job hunt keeps me too busy to read much online (consider yourself special), let alone reply -- hunting for a job turns out to be a lot more work than having one.

Thanks for the offer of a code, but I really don't have a use for it right now -- see my post to Terence.
I figured it might be convenient to have a user name (and optionally picture) even if you never post entries in your own journal. That way if people have friends-only posts they can add you to their friends lists and you can see those posts. I have a permanent account, so codes are not a problem.
Yes, I'll be at Darkover. Thanks for the email address. Good luck in the job hunt!
I drop by every few days to see what's new, and as I don't have a Live Journal myself, I obviously don't fall in either of the above categories.
