Dear CC: List:
This exchange reminds me of a some emails that were posted in 1995 by a fellow originally
from India who was posting from another country to YSN. This Indian fellow resorted to calling
me names like "racist" when I suggested that his interest in immigrating to the U.S. was
driven by economic interests. Simply put, he could make more money in America than
he was earning in India. On a micro scale, he desired the benefits of working in America.
However, he was indifferent to the fact that he was displacing a slightly older American citizen
scientist or engineer. However, in 1992, Richard F. Tax noted "Today's Immigrant is Tomorrow's
Victim." Employer age discrimination is wonderful only while the person displacing a slightly
older person is young. I note that Joachim is silent regarding employer age discrimination.
And the "shout names and run" characteristic of the fellow from India was commented on by
another YSN contributor who noted that it was the academic equivalent of placing a
stink bomb in a lecture hall.

Subject: Joachim Feise
Dear CC: list
Since Joachim has such strong feelings about this, I performed a bit of
research on the web. Here is what I learned:
Feise.txt from this url.
http://pv314.pv.reshsg.uci.edu/~jfeise/index.html
Who I am and what I do:
Occupation: Software Engineer at Eagle Creek Systems,
Inc., Fallbrook, CA, a Microsoft Solution Provider
Certifications: Microsoft Certified Solution Developer, 1997
Education: Diplom-Informatik Degree, TU Berlin, Germany, 1993 (equivalent to Master's Degree in Computer Science)
Master's Degree in Information and Computer Science, University of California, Irvine, 1998
Graduate Student in Computer Science at the University of California, Irvine (seeking a Ph.D.)
Also a private aircraft pilot.
I will leave it to those reading this message to draw inferences regarding the likely
immigration status of Joachim. Such inferences could help to explain his perspective.
The final note suggests something regarding Joachim's economic class. When
my wife checked into becoming a private pilot, she found it to be very expensive.
