That's just about it.

Well, there was one email from Joel about 6 years ago, does that count?

I know Kyle, George and Rebecca best. Never interacted with other SE employees that I know of.

Developers mostly through meta/metaSO.  
I wouldn't say I've had *extensive* interaction, but I'm not entirely unknown to the StackExchange team, and they either like me or politely tolerate my eccentricities.  
I try not to be too much of a pest

He was the first question that I threw a bounty on.

Nothing major though

The devs aren't in there as often, but some with them.  One of the devs implemented mobile device improvements that I asked for, even.

I also chat with George, Kyle, and Peter whenever they're in chat. From what I can tell, they're all nice people as long as you can back up concerns or suggestions with research or well-thought-out answers.
