fogarty: I saw the EDS anouncement, but passed on posting it.
The truth is: the high-tech, telecom, dotbomb, computerized financial services, etc. etc. sectors have been collapsing so badly that there is no way in creation I can possibly keep up. I post a lot about those industries as it is. Gotta deliberately select stories about other types of businesses just to get some variety in the discussion.
It is bad, and getting worse. The second bombshell from the airlines will soon go off - my prediction is American will have to layoff another 10,000 just to avoid bankruptcy proceedings.
Lockheed is the only game in town, and the amount of jobs they are creating amounts to maybe 1/100 of what's been lost.
Housing & Real estate are looking bleak and its gonna get a lot worse.
aaaarrrggghhh
Oh hell. Let BALDACCI MAKE EM! That's all he is GOOD for!
