In this day an age of rising unemployment, this just published article is
cause for a bit of optimism.

The new technology expansion is encouraging and the last sentence of the
article, although small potatoes in the big scheme of things, supports my
feelings of where the future is. Get a bunch of companies like this moving
forward and the recovery will be well underway.
