sheesh are they desperate. Funny they mention immigrants as the ones taking up the slack. That will only last so long as they're starting to go to more friendly nations and they simply aren't being allowed in the US anymore.

There's also this videogame for recruiting..

That's crap Ron - sorry to be blunt.
US college students are declining in computer science and engineering - because they see the layoffs in corp. America, and the outsourcing going on - which then means it's rational not to go into these fields.

They expect the number of IT people outsourced to India to go up 400% by 2010 - in the millions.

They need to fix that problem - not get them to write screenplays - LOL - what a waste of money and thought.

PS - not that easy - you don't just write them either. It is easier to win a jackpot in a casino than to sell a screenplay FWIW - I know people in that business.
