That's exactly where I got that number. I'm sure one or two regionals will hire a few folks...but wholesale hiring is not going to happen.

There is zero or negative growth at the regionals right now, and nobody is leaving. In 2012 many majors will have to start hiring just to keep up with attrition...that would trigger regional hiring, assuming that the economy improves and most of the furloughs are back by then.
