Thanks KoruPilot, a lot of people helped me so I'm just passing it along. I've had that email addy for over a year and it has been posted on APC several times. There have been 163 satisfied note seekers so far and 13 added last night after this post 
Now, for everyone that emailed me. I'll get to your emails as soon as I can. I got a lot of them so it will take me some time to burn through them all, I just ask for your patience and for you to forward them to your friends that want them.

Ryguy,
I hope I can buy you a beer sometime soon on a layover somewhere. Thanks for all of the information. Pilots helping pilots! You definitely have made that phrase happen for several of us. Best of Luck. KU.

Now Sike, don't go all PPRuNe on us
You do bring up a very valid point though. I know it is the internet and these messages are just emails to a guy on a message board. However, some of them are a little too relaxed. First point, any professional communication needs to have complete words and not text message abbreviations. While I am a laid back guy, I get a kick out of some of the emails I get. Some are literally, "hey dude, can I get those notes frm u, thx." Notice the lack of any capitalization or sentence structure.
I give pretty much anyone the benefit of the doubt that you do not write anything to the company in that manner. However, now may be a good time to brush up on the professional writing techniques.
As always though I will still get the notes out to those who want them. May as well dole out the professional writing advice as well. I received a few more requests tonight and will get to them as soon as I can.

That is hilarious and so incredibly true. I really do wonder if some of the guys on here speak as eloquently as they write 
Great thread. I'm currently looking into the SO position.
FWIW a friend of mine was just offered the SO position with around 3000 TT, 2500 turbine, 800 PIC Turbine in a Saab 340 and 0 Jet time.
