We are looking for someone to take on the role of President for LoopWorks in our effort to build an advanced transit system (PRT) in Milpitas. Although the title will be President, the primary tasks will be related to public relations, not business management (we already have those skills). LoopWorks needs a new public face (not mine) to solve the real barrier to Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) -- political/perception issues.

We are nearly ready to publicly launch the effort to build a PRT system in Milpitas after...
