>>Hi Alan,

>>>I also regard it as unjust, but if Naomi isn't going to do anything about it, then it's not up to me (or you) to act in her place. Has she requested your help in this?

>>Meny time person in need of help will NOT request help directly. Every bit of support you offer or give will be as good as God's given gift.
>>I understand Peter's (and everybody else) willingnes to side with Naomi.
>>Situation is really awfull so it simply need no invitation to a good person to help. I understood there is (are) chilld(ren) in picture as well.

>>I would not side with continued public action against AK/MA (that's done I wld say) but rather with action to support person in need (NN) with moral, human and if necessary even financial help.
>>Best help, as a matter of fact would be helping her to find the job (preferably without internet access!)
>>
>>UT is large network of IT professionals, I believe someone can come up with some job oppening hint. Knowing here internet habbits, I would not offer personal reccomendation myself so this is not what I am implying here - just a hint, Phone/Name of the person or company looking for VFP professional.
>>
>>Then she has to proove she is worthy being helped, by winning and keeping that job.

>So we are in agreement. Helping Naomi is worthwhile, but persuing a vendetta against AK/MA is no more right than what they did.

Now that actually read title <vbg> and thread, I understand where are you comming from :)
At surface reading your answer sounded somewhat like that American saying 'mind your business' and offered prospect off drifting into confronting Peter, whereas we should perhaps all just try to help
her the best way we can.

Peter,
Whole thread is actually drift from prety firm and (surprisingly)
united community response/stand on this issue/case :)
I know you want to help as any other felow here, but if your proposal
was to be folowed it would actually lead to huge storms at meny levels
and beyond UT boundaries, withoud yielding any positive result.
Meny people will get into various confrontations while helping NN would be completely sidelined. You certainly don't want this to happen.

Vendeta will not feed her chilldren, nor help put herself together.
It would be actually counterproductive in whole context. She would be eventually pooled into this endless rounds of (stresfull) events instead of using all her mental strenght stabilyse herself, find new job and secure herself and chilldren.

Why don't we simply close this thread, and open another one called
'Job for Naomi - Private Messages Only' instead :)
