I can relate to this.  Now it seems every little pig-path has at least one 
sound company (kinda like when there weren't any electronic engineers and 
then everyone for several years went into electronic engineering...  Now if a 
person doesn't have an M.S.E.E., he/she might as well be working for minimum 
wage... (One tech I know got hired at $6 an hour... It's gonna take him 20 
years to pay off his student loan, time he pays all the interest and tries to 
"live")
