No, you didn't. And this thread was not intended, at least on my part, to rant 
on LS.
I apologize if my and others' frustration relating to the job application 
process
landed on LS's shoulders any more than them being an example of what almost 
everyone
is culpable of.

I was just using them as an analog to LS. About the same size and roughly in 
the same
business. Probably should have used another example

Hah! They sure do have resourcefulness and smart owners. I worked there from 
'97 to 911 
and designed/build the NEFCU admin back-end. I had nothing to do with the 
extranet, don't even know
if L9 is responsible for it (does it run coldfusion?) and its probably been 
long-overhauled since
my time. But I have visited their website (they were advertising for jobs some 
time back) and was
underwelmed; as much as i was back in 2000 when their people were shuffling 
in-n-out of our conference room:)

Well, that was my point for citing summit. IIRC, they were supposed to have 
implemented a plan
that made all of MP wireless, but stopped at the Capitol steps. I felt that 
could warrant some 
honest criticism.

I'm far from being a cobol fan-boy, but i wouldnt be surprised to find 
amo,amas,amat, in the code
100 years from now:) Someone recently suggested i re-train myself by learning 
cobol. I told them
I would rather suffer a severe case of the mumps.
