Rather that "being afraid", consider that being self-employed allows me to 
speak freely.  I made this comment on behalf of some who might have an 
interest in looking around but prefer not leaving compromising records on 
employer computers or elsewhere.

Know that I have about 40 years prior experience in being employed and so 
my comments are not made in ignorance of job search environment.

As a sage once said, just because you are paranoid, it doesn't mean they 
aren't out to get you  ;-)  FWIW, I did intend my comment to be serious.

Regards, Dennis
