Looks like I've found [another Ex-Israeli-turned-Redmond](http://blogs.msdn.com/uril/archive/2004/06/11/153761.aspx) . I wonder just how many of those reside within Redmond. Why do I look for them? I think it's about Camaraderie in a way, or maybe just to see more proof and know that it's actually possible to get from here to there. Plus - it's great for networking! :)
