I must have been more important than I remember.

I've been getting invitations to things like Stanford University Alumni and Friends luncheon for science discussions.

I'm sure they would rather invite Zen but he turned them down I guess.

I've had invitations to several high technology committees and the like. The Presidents and VP's at the companies I worked at are generally chairing these things.

I suppose I would probably get some job offers from these things but all of the real stuff is moving further and further south of Silicon Valley - and 8 hour round trip commutes aren't exactly my choice for a life.

What would I rather do - do a 50 mile ride with 2800 feet of climbing at an average speed of 12.12 mph or commute for 6-8 hours a day?

Skip the commute and work remotely -- or with your massive brain, telepathically. People with your uber-genius IQ don't go to offices. They appear, like an apparition, floating above the crowd. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RQxD4Ff7dY People should be paying you to ride your bike and think big thoughts -- really big thoughts. Call yourself an institute.
