[Jobs] transcription jobs

Have you contacted them?  I tried to contact them a year ago, called and 
e-mailed and couldn't get a hold of anybody.  A friend of mine tested for 
them, sent in the app and everything and never heard a thing.  Seemed the 
website was still up but that the company wasn't really running.  Maybe they 
were in the process of switching to another site or something I don't know. 
But was curious, because they seem like the ideal thing.  They've got a 
wonderful variety of jobs, lots of them, and they don't require any 
formatting as someone else does that part of it.  Anyhow, please let me and 
the list know if you were able to make contact, if they realy are in 
existence.
