OFF TOPIC:

Many folks on this newsgroup are apparently retired.  Now they
are urging cuts in Social Security and Medicare (and Medicaid)
which could be devastating to senior citizens.

One of my early bosses is 90 years old.  Is there really a
market out for 1401 Autocoder programmers so he can go back
to work? Not sure what else he can do, though he knew his
way around a plugboard.  Kind of frail now.

Very troubling.  People of moderate means get screwed so that
the wealthy can keep their generous tax cuts.
