And Reagan. A lawyer friend of mine said most civil liberties went out the window during the "War on Drugs".

You forgot the other definition of POS, the one that always pops into my mind before the others :)

I know one POS system used by a big box home hardware and home remodeling corporation was using TSO while I was shoulder surfing the clerk. Which I found interesting as I assume it must be running a Z series on the back end. Since TSO and Z series information is very specialized I assume few would actually know how to crack it. Security through obscurity. Others from the UI I have seen looked like MS UI or a Gnome variants.

Just trust everyone..

Heard it on the radio a couple of days ago.

And Congress. Both the Senate and the House could have done their own hearings and upon finding wrong doing formally report it to the DoJ and/or SEC. demanding justice.

The numerical recipes series was much more than algorithms and code. It told you more about the how and *why* of an algorithm. And when as in when it should be used. The commentary alone is enough reason to buy them even if you never actually use any code from them.

I was probably retraining myself long before you were a wet stain on you mommas panties[1]. How's this for a resume (approximate chronological order): Uniflex (Unix work alike), CDC, M77, Ultrix (Unix work alike), C64, Snobol, LISP, C, PL/I, 6501, 6800, VM, MVS, JCL, too many versions of Windows to count, Pascal, Rapid Prototyping, Powerbuilder, HPUX, AIX, GIS, ESRI, Solaris, sh, bash, csh, gcc, Foxpro, Perl, Visual Studio, Spiral, VB, SQL (various flavors), Too many flavors of Linux to count (I actually started using Slackware about 1996), Oracle, SQL Server, mySQL, postgresql, Python, Function point analysis, C#, NUnit, R, Java, Junit, Eclipse, Groovy, Spring.

And more. I've seen it all and so moving on to the next fad is no big problem for me.

[1] By the way how's she doing. I haven't seen her in a while. Next time you get out of the basement say hi for me.

OP has been watching too many Sarah Palin videos.

You forgot a "1" in that.

To really mess things up requires an Ivy league MBA.

And by being a publicly traded company business decisions are driven by Wall Street, even if they make no long term business sense. If you want to destry a company, go publicly traded with it. Look at what happened to Google.

read somewhere that to change an organization internally takes 20 years. Everyone must retire, quit or die. so the fastests way tochange things is to lay people off, sell non-performing divisions etc.

To expand on that, a medicaid lawyer might help. Medicaid has been widened due to ACA, also known as Obamacare. They may be able to help.
