Well not only was it pointed out to me, but I "got it" on my own after
actually sleeping.  A record 5.5hrs...up from 3 the day before!  :)  And
the crowd goes wild...

You get as good as "not native language"?  I don't mind that so much.  It's
when you call tech support somewhere and get someone with English as a 27th
language and they haven't supplied you with a nice, finely honed knife to
cut through this unintelligible accent they have that I tend to get
annoyed.

I wonder how much of that support is actually -routed- overseas, and how
many are immigrants working domestically.  Personally, I'd like to see a
www.stopoutsourcingnow.org take the topic straight to the government via
petitions, requesting stiff penalties and disincentives for companies that
do outsource abroad.  It's killing our economy--and not just in IT.
