Well Terence, you weren't involved in the LUG in '02 when I lost my job of 23 years to 8 Indian programmers - 6 in Bangalore & 2 in Charlotte.
<shameless plug> My wife used the incident to write "Jobless Recovery", the hapless tale of a North Carolina programmer working for a Fortune 500 company. The hero must teach his Indian replacements in order to collect a severence check. She even threw in a touch of Enron... and a murder! Where'd that idea come from? Check it out. On Amazon after Valentine's Day, 2005.
