Chuck thanks for the heads-up. Anyone on the list care to comment on
this NAICS thing? Is it a good thing? Working in an agency that gets its
employment data given to it by another agency I really do not have a good
read on this. I am sure there are others equally unaware of what NAICS
means to them.

The Census 2000 will be using 2 new classification systems. NAICS or
North American Industry Classification System will be used for
classifying employment by industry. SOC or Standard Occupational
Classification will be used to classify occupations.
I encourage you to become familiar with the SOC revisions and to
submit comments. Thanks.
