So true, Mr. M. Why, that reminds me of the time back in 1992 when I heard someone say, "I wouldn't even consider a position at that company. Too many people have been being laid off there lately". The moral of the story is that you can count on the fingers of one hand the instances of that construction you'll hear in a decade or so!
