Hi Dan,
Thanks for asking.

This is my fifth layoff since 2004.
I have a good chance at a job already - two phone interviews, and now an 
in-person interview coming up. Even if I don't get this one, there will be more.

I'm doing fine for now.

And we had a group lunch today. (14 people?)
And the people I talked to at the OCLUG meeting last Tuesday were very helpful.

I might add that every job I have got since 2004 was through networking in some 
way, including through OCLUG.

The Ottawa software groups have been very helpful.
That's one of the reasons I maintain, and mention, the list of Ottawa groups on 
my blog.
It's a simple way to give back. It's a way that others can discover the rich 
selection of 

Rob

That's rough.  How's it going now?  There will be lots on this list that 
have been in that situation.  People will help.  You just have to reach out.
