Golden Lake is long gone. It has been remodeled and replaced by better quality food and decor (and higher prices). Golden Lake was also known as Golden Rake to some old timers.

Although i don't work at the Folsom site anymore), i did for many years at the <i>highest</> levels, mind you! 

The ambulance is a marketing tool to highlight the "out-of-the-box" ideas for intel chips. it's completely outfitted with GPS, Wi-Fi, satellite and all manner of techno-goodies to show how an ambulance crew could diagnose remotely on the scene and transmit data to the emergency room in prep for the arriving patient, or get up-to-the-second "virtual doctor" advice for the patient. there are a lot of "out-of-the-box" ideas like that, more are inside the building. 

i'm sure any folsom employee can detail the "doc-in-a-box" device in the cafe - it was so popular people gave up waiting in line for it.

Digital Health is just another vertical market Intel is involved in. I would suspect that the ambulance is a marketing gimmick taken to various shows to grab some attention.

The Kabob House is for the peeps who joined post 1995 when the stock options were plentiful and proved worthy before the bust in August 2000. 

If you want a tour of the local sites and FM8, send me an email. I'm free before the US Holiday and have a 1.75l of gin standing by.

Its used by the Digital Health Marketing Guys at various events. Its got some demo gear inside.

I'd assume that on a Saturday customer reserved slots are fair game for the regular grunts that are sacrificing their weekend.

As to the phone comment, Americans in general seem to have forgotten their manners, especially while operating cell phones.

The Intel Response Team vehicles are used by the in-house ERT people. They contain a spill kit, first aid kit, and a few SCBA bottles, and are used in case of an on-campus emergency, to get the specially trained ERT people to an emergency anywhere on campus, without having to wait for civilian emergency response.

Don't know about the ambulance looking thing though, not my area.

Thanks for light-hearted article. It was very funny. I enjoyed it. Keep it coming.
