MM, I respectfully disagree regarding your characterization of the majority of Government workers. My customers are Government Civil Servants, and in my military days I dealt with quite a few as well. Your characterization isn't what I have observed.

The military person who shows disdain for civilians may have had some bad experiences, and there are definitely a group of them that fit the definition of the Civil Service Rocket: It won't work because you can't fire it.

But I have had the pleasure of working with many, many hard working, dedicated, professional civil servants in the field who epitomize the mission-oriented attitudes we need to have. Please give them their just due.

Will it ever stop raining (in '07 I didn't think I'd ever get to 8itch about too much rain ever again!)
