Still it would be a nice pipe-dream to see them get a taste of living 
hand-to-mouth like some of us.  I think that if they have a salary over 
60k someone should divert their excess wealth directly to needy people 
without the intervention of existing agencies.  I'm not advocating 
communism or anything but to me they are as disgusting as atheletic or 
popular movie star salaries.  And most of them climbed up the backs of 
people like us.

Time to rustle up a Geeks union...hmm...does that resolve?  Nope. 
Somebody, (I don't have the cash), should buy all the Geekunion domains 
and set something up.  It's about high time our (large) part of the 
professional poulation was recognized as something other than wage-slaves.
