It's nice to hear a voice of sanity applied to the portenders of doom. If you have been programming for 38 years you should be able to get in on the big bucks available - of course these jobs are not permanent but the trend these days seems to be to move every few years. I checked with some people I know in the drug business and was told - yes there is a problem but people will get their medications.
