I would never call NZ or Australia hell holes ;-) Sometimes when my disgust at where the U.S. is heading I think about moving there, in that order. If they would have me. I am not sure how long you have been on the UT or the FoxForum but from Lisa Slater's account she had to go through hell for a resident visa so she could live there with Colin. She was a world renowned FoxPro developer and author and they essentially told her you are without job prospects in our country. She eventually beat them down -- Lisa is nothing if not tenacious -- but she had to work to do it.
