Well, crap. That took care of the smile I got from Marcia's post.

Good luck! You have a lot of credentials so I doubt you will be out of work long even in this economy. I probably can't give you any advice you haven't already heard. The best I can think of is to stay as positive as you can and network, network, network. You never know what off the wall connection will lead to a job.

Are you in a position to travel or relocate? I hear about opportunities from time to time and will be happy to pass them along to you.
