Nah, it's only economists who are bankrolled by people who have a lot to gain if/when the economy picks up. The rest of us tell it as we see it. EDIT: It's just we can't get the same amount of air time...

"Well, I accepted the Bell offer - in fact I would have worked at Bell for nothing, but I didn't mind getting paid for what was for me a dream come true." This is the kind of company I want to create...someday in the future, I hope.
