Heh...should have asked them how they feel about becoming obsolete....

This is vey profound! I was a paperboy in my early teens. I got to thinking recently how no kid will ever have that particulary opportunity again.

They'll find new things. I answered phones for a year and a half starting when I was fourteen, and then did some technical writing.

heh. I knew that opportunity last year when I needed to pick up a 2nd job...

2J - You showed great restraint in what was a most difficult situation. 6 months ago, I had to visit the office of Partick Kennedy (our most limp-wristed liberal Congressman). His office is located in the heart of the RI DNC office...I was in the belly of the Beast. I felt uneasy the entire time, it was a terrible experience..lol
