      Notice at the bottom of the scanned letter the phrase "HR Customer Support". Now there's a concept born in the deepest, darkest pits of hell.

      print "http://www.codeproject.com".toURL().text Ain't that Groovy?

                Looking at the letter, the blanked out amounts look like they may be quite high, too!
