Can we kill this thread.
Also.. if you have personnel comments for folks make them off list and 
let them have a chance to correct themselves.  If they dont you can 
publicly "out" them.  It helps little to pick/belittle someone in public.

Lets get back to helping folks find work.

P.S.  I apologize for continuing the silly off topic thread
