William:  I totally agree that the bad luck of losing one's job can turn 
into opportunity.  I've had that experience myself, and, at heart, I'm a 
firm believer in staying positive and looking for the new bend in the road 
which hopefully will lead one off the road of bad luck and panic (in the 
jobloss context).  But in today's job market there is a degree of 
insensitivity combined with exploitation that is hard to stomach--and I feel 
for folks who are victims of this.
Cheers, Christine
