Looks as if I didn't test all conditions. Thanks for finding this for me

Yup.....
I had an assignment in Las Vegas that didn't pan out as well as I had hoped. Good working conditions, good people, but not the long-term thing I was looking for. Then this turned up. Permenant (or, at least as permenant as I can hope for in today's environment) with a company still committed to FoxPro and with benefits. I didn't like trashing my reputation by cutting short the contract work, but just had to do it to take care of my family properly.
BTW -- anybody reading this who is interested in a 6-12 month assignment in Las Vegas doing strictly maintenance work let me know and I'll send the particulars.
