Hi Janet, I am actually trying to get a hold of Karen Hallstein. You might remember me as well. My name is Kathy McCaulou, I was a Corporate Operator at Sun Microsystems. I am living in Mexico now, but hope to return to the U.S. sometime by the end of this year. I am trying to put my resume references back together. Karen was one of my references and was hoping she still would be a reference for me. I know she is workng there and over at Oracle. Would you mind passing this email on to Karen? I would really appreciate it. Thanks, Kathy Mc.
