Bill, can you please try to fix larger issues plaguing the industry than those mentioned in the article? or at least address them?

Don't get me wrong: I love 2003 Server-- great stuff, but I am now worried about my unemployment. But, i cannot decide if it is realy worse than being employed in this industry (OH the sht I've seen!): management of this industry is so incredibly bad, it's a shame we all suffer as engineers.

Bill, why not address systemic issues within the capitalist environment. Things like: well, like why we all go to college and think that if we work hard, we'll 'succeed'; but in reality, we graduate and face two possible futures: own or be owned; be a dictator or be subject to one; Ahh the hoax of capitalism: creates more dictators than any other form of govt. But, I digress, Bill, how about promoting things like 'industrial democracy' or 'democratically-interpreted scientific method as a basis for rule of law in decision making' (that last one's mine!)

Ok ok, I know this is ranting, but for Lebowski's sake, to paraphrase Rodney King: can't we all just try to fix systemic issues so we can head toward a better, more accurate, merit and method based world?
