it's a market correction... it's been artificially inflated thanks to dot-
coms for too long, and now the market is fixing itself... there's no 
recession or problem with the economy... business hasn't dried up, 
and i can still afford everything i could afford before...

don't buy into the media frenzy... it makes good news, but it is far 
from accurate...

yep, inflated cost of living, and collapsed dot-com market...

hell, i'm fighting to get people here in buffalo, but everyone who 
does web work seems to think they're entitled to some west coast 
or big-city lifestyle... too bad they can't afford it... instead you live 
in a tier-2 city, beat the big markets on cost of living and rates, and 
live quite comfortably...
