in reply to Recruiters from Beyond

I have database (programming) experience, so I get recruiters all the time telling me they have a DBA position open; also, I have (Informix) 4gl experience, so I get calls asking if I have 4gl experience, and when I ask "what kind of 4gl", they have to ask the client and its usually Progress 4gl, and they (the recruiter and/or the client) think its the same thing...nothing unusual though, there's this kind of thing and more on the Real Rates BBS. Some there think its a plot to ask for so much that they can't hire anyone except someone cheaply on an H1B visa, but I won't comment :-)
