You know it amazes me that ANY recruiting agency would defend
Microsoft after this hit the press:

"http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/businesstechnology/2002468560_msft

by a company that is actively working to put us out of business!"  "Great

But who ever said recruiters were particularly intelligent.
