I'm from Mississippi originally. The one thing I like about these a veiled arguments concerning outsourcing is that I can't think of any trailer park person whom I grew up with who would rather maintain an old Cobol legacy system over hauling pulpwood.
Me personally, I wouldn't do either. But if I had to, I'd cut down trees with a chainsaw. There is something manly about it. However, a philosophy I often prefer to follow is this. "Before criticizing someone walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you're a mile a way and you're wearing their shoes."

One company that I am aware of that was outsourced to India needed a *LOT* of bandwidth (fiber) back here to the states. They only talk about internet but what about the other (private) communications (do you know?)?
