Guess I'm an exception, too, and I wasn't grandfathered in from a previous
company.
As far as your "extra large" comment goes, I already get enough Spam on that
one, THANkewverramuch.

Diane...every situation has exceptions...you may be one of them, perhaps the
beneficiary of timing or of extra large cojones, and if I remember
correctly, weren't you grandfathered in when a company you were at was
bought by another?
Also...I think you may well know more than you think.
Tell me...if I came to you and asked you to write something involving
laser-induced fluorescence or frequencies of catalytic reactions, would your
eyes glaze over, or would you at least know how to start, where to go, and
what questions to ask?
BTW...I left college with 8 credits to go for a BS in Biology, Pre-Dental,
so I KNOW how tough your field is.
