Tom,
You are right, I shouldn't have attacked you. Sorry, I regretted sending
the mail almost immediately. I hope you take it for what it was, a bad
case of judgment and a fit of nerd-rage and not a personal attack on your
adaptability or intent. I guess I'm frustrated about a lot of the same
points you bring up.

If you have gotten this far, let me apologize again for my crude earlier
posts. I really do value your opinions and input.
Gabe,
Not often that I'm completely surprised. I opened your post with
trepidation, then read it with relish. I appreciate your thoughtfulness and
graciousness. I will respond to the meat of your post at a later date (long
day, I'm beat). I have received some off-list responses regarding this
issue, but I want to put out any flame war before it starts. We're cool,
and there's no need for this to devolve into a discussion of anything but
the z/OS career market.
Thanks,
Tom
