Hi All

An intriguing and disturbing story indeed.

And in the midst of everything else, one wonders how the managers 
could not have seen the issues regarding labelling the 'lowest' 
of the labour classes with YELLOW badges, and having those lower 
class workers with the yellow badges denied the privileges given 
to the others in their immediate environment.  Perhaps I'm being 
overly sensitive, but, my goodness, I can only guess that the 
managers and IT supervisory staff just hadn't studied their 
European history.

Regards

Ken
