Well put captscott. Maybe some are afraid that with his qualifications, he might just get the job over someone with less. I think that is as it should be. I can't imagine starting over after finishing a long career, but that's his choice. Maybe he has family medical bills to pay, or maybe his spouse just wants him out of the house. He came here for help, and if you can't give him any, at least don't denigrate him. He at least deserves our support. As the character in the movie "Bambi" said "If you can't say something nice about someone, don't say anything at all".
