Hi all, The painful issue I want to discuss is not in domain of this forum, however, I would appreciate the provision of some basic information.

At the same time I felt sorry and would like to say that we all should have maturity, decency, patience and courage to respect the information given by others. For example, if I have not experienced or seen a thing, it by no means reflect that it does no...

Hi ND, Back to original stuff. Endorsing the views of Kayalami & NMSheikh, I also think that switching to HSMP is a better, rather safe bet. I did it myself and faced very little tension when I lost my job. As a matter of fact, one have nothing to loose. As said by NMSheikh, its a win win situat...
