No, seriously-don’t go. I may be late in finding what I consider a true gem on this board (I don’t even know-or care-about any MIT snobbishness) but now that I’ve found you I really would be disappointed if you left. You’re just great. I hope I’m not blubbering or gushing here. Seriously. You have value of which you’re not even aware. And probably never will be. Don’t go.
