yeah - your hearing this story over and over. And I don't know where the Times is getting their data. Obviously, those of us who went through the previous dot.com boom KNOW that it is wrong on two fronts... A) the dot come boom was independent of Wall Street Jobs and in fact those jobs piled on after the Boom and Soho start up dragged the banks forward, B) the move from the Dot Com boom for the post 70's drought was more profound and deep that the current movement. But most importantly we also KNOW that this will crash hard and those without better coding skills than make "Flappy Bird Flap", is going to find themselves lost without hard core skill sets.
85K looks good though, right.
Now for the other half of this paragraph of note, that coalition of queens needs to be looked at as yet another example of what NYLXS should be doing. Ruben
