I thought it was cute!

My reference to nit-picking (and you were...) regards your message that the
link Joe posted doesn't work. Most people know that mailing list software
often breaks links at 80 characters, and reasonable people (obviously not
you) just take the pieces and paste them back together to get a workable
URL.

You're obviously too focused on not believing anything that we have said in
this thread, so just let it go.

By the way - Do you work for Tata, Kevin?

Oh, well done. When you're challenged on your position, attack the person.
BTW, since you're so good at looking things up, look up *ad hominem" while
you're at it.

Sorry, pal, didn't realize that you were unable to abide any challenge to
your orthodoxy.

Kevin -
I indicated in a previous post that Dr. Matloff's article REFERRED TO the
Times of India article. Had you actually _read_ what Dr. Matloff wrote, you

would have seen the link to the Times of India article in what he wrote.
However, since his article is text-based, the URL to the Times of India
article was not clickable.

By the way, Norm Matloff is the most credible and articulate spokesman that
we have in the fight against outsourcing, offshoring, and importation of
cheap foreign labor.

So I'll try one more time:
First read this entire article -
http://heather.cs.ucdavis.edu/Archive/Hillary5.txt
Then read this one -
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/538674.cms

In the future, please try not to be so obtuse (I'll save you time by posting

the definition below...)
