Hi Frannie,

Your links do not work, you need to remove the trailing underscore.

Wow, another job "ad" with a broken link. Does anybody proof read these? 
admittedly, I think this issue is due to translation from HTML to plain 
text email, but it must be a little embarrassing all the same.

Nice salary, though;  it's more than the slave wages that are de rigeur 
in the sector.

Regards,
Jason George
