Larry B,

Obviously you know a thing or two about gov't. procurement system. And yeah I was making a t.i.c. remark about the merit-demerit points. Some times I can't help myself.

I hate like hell that crap like this happens because it paints an entire agency with a broad negative brush. I never hesitate to remind co-workers that the reason for the negative public opinion of gov't. agencies is because of the seemingly endless supply of examples that earn it.
