I don't need to "tell anyone" that.

Then tell it to them. Tell it to those that I mentioned. Some of them probably consider themselves conservative. But they still feel entitled, and even to government jobs. I mean, don't tell me. I'm convinced. I find the behavior to be inappropriate. But so . .

So why not form your own company

Everybody does. And Microsoft seems less a threat to them. One of the reasons - they're upsetting, and frightening, their customer base. It's the free market. Don't fear the free market. If Microsoft's policies are finally non-competitive, after years of the opposite, then in that competitive aspect or portion of the market, it's up to them to change - it's not up to their customers. Understand that.

I used to always pity was the maintenance people and the ugly spaghetti code. Still it is a CHOICE to do that.

You sound furious about - life, or something. Those programmers couldn't have taken that attitude to such work, because it would have been so daunting. I'm sure, to a degree, they had to be positive about it, or burn out right then and there. Good teachers.

Think Raines will get a sterling reference?

Umm . . . does he care? He cashed in. His 'package', his 'parcel', his 'enclosure', his 'addressed to occupant' was in excess of $120million dollars. And will he get a reference from fellow Dem? BANK ON IT? as they say.

It's funny if you think about it. But it's also a horrible public example. It's wrong. And he was wrong. And you're wrong to defend him.

WHY are you so angry at me?

Why not direct your anger and discontent at DOING SOMETHING ABOUT YOUR not wanting to change and learn new technology?

There's no reason you can't join a start up or create one. THese people with noney that you despiste, venture capitalists could help you get going. Then again, it might no be for you since you don't want to upgrade yourself to something other than what you are doing now.

You see, you've determined your own fate. All you want to do is whine about things. This seems to make you the happiest. I really thing you'd find more comfort on the DU. At the DU they have the same tired, bitter outlook, complete with class envy.
