I'm not saying that in the former, we really were well educated to perform our jobs, and in the latter to go out and spend 5K to go to Chooch U you better have a job waiting, and have passed the physical. I know things have changed a l;ot since I first went railroading in '69, and they've changed since I left in '99. I had to pay for my own education as an artist, and I still had to serve an apprenticeship at a commercial art studio so I understand the need to be pre-educated. I believe that years ago one could take a correspondence course at least in the realm of being a locomotive fireman. Just like our old trainmaster used to say, "We're not looking for anyone special, we just want warm bodies." I would just hate to see a guy go out and spend that kind of money just to not get hired. "Iron Mike" Pitauski, of the Milwaukee Road, used to say that when he was hired they didn't ask you how old you were, they just asked if you shaved. <br />Mitch
