Thanks, Bill. It turned out to be timely for me--since I was in the midst
of being laid-off when you sent it. Though, I've still never experienced
this `abusive outsourcing' phenomena personally (when I've been laid-off,
the H-1B workers were getting laid-off right along with me). I'd guess
this is an artifact of the type of organisations where I've worked....

Luckily, the job-market for good software hackers looks decent right now.
I'm trying to figure out what I want to do. The thought had occurred
to me that I actually might like working on tools for cinema....
I guess not at Disney.

(if anyone's got suggestions for positions that might be a good fit,
 I'd love to hear them...)
