Wee Weasle et al - I agree with the principle - wholeheartedly. It would be great if we would all stand up and be counted, but, as Scroggs (I think) pointed out earlier, plenty of wannabees don't even read pprune, or contribute, let alone subscribe to the general consensus here.
It's a darn sight easier to bang on about principles when you already have a job. No job at all, or a potentially badly paid one, at least initially? I know I'd do what it takes ..... if my bank 'balance' could stand the further strain.
