Above the issue of divulging names, let us not forget too that poking fun at 
people isn't exactly the nicest way of being treated. If I were a recruiter and 
posted an opening in good faith even without good spelling, sentence structure, 
punctuation or grammar) and got nothing for my pains except ridicule and 
virtual laughter, I would also certainly think twice about posting here again. 

We all know that the economy is bleeding jobs. Frankly, if I were unemployed or 
underemployed, I'd take an EDI job in a heartbeat whether the message was 
formatted well or not. The money spends the same. 

I would hope that this group is not turning into the "EDI Cognoscenti" group 
whose purpose it is to keep people out. We're bigger than that. Right?

As much fun as we have with recruiters' communication foibles, I wonder at 
the utility of divulging the names of the firms they represent to the list 
at large. 

If I were a recruiter and posted an opening in good faith (with good 
spelling, sentence structure, punctuation and grammar), just to have the 
name of my client revealed and my strategic advantage destroyed, I would 
never again post openings to the list. Let's not kill the goose that laid 
the golden eggs -- or peachez.
