Of late, however, there has been a great deal of evidence that presents a prima facie challenge to this article of faith. Around December 1994, I think, the Wall St. Journal ran a long front page article written by a reporter who worked in a dirty recycling center (MURF), and a poultry processing plant, among other jobs. The very good article reported that the six fastest growing jobs (in the U.S.) in the 90s were those two and some other low-skill, low-wage, dirty, dangerous, boring, dead-end jobs. Sorry I don't recall the other jobs or the exact reference. Blair Sandler
