Subject: Re: Mark Fries Executive Search - Tampa, Florida
Charles,
I don't know of him but, upon looking up "Fries Executive Search" on
Google, only found the sconsig post, the original post to slist, a number
of directory listings and, possibly most importantly, the following:
http://www.flux.org/pipermail/jobs/2004-February/000119.html
He obviously has, on at least one occasion asked people to broadcast a
posting. I wonder if any of the list members are lawyers and would be
willing to share any insight.
