   Sorry, Tom, this isn't philosophy.  It's software engineering.

   And yes, it is indeed unfortunate that many CS majors who graduated
   several years back were able to get their degrees without a
   software engineering requirement.  Those persons can now upgrade 
   their skills at the local University Bookstore.
