Hi Shawn,
The information that Sven shared was from last week's NY Daily News, or 
possibly another NY paper was legit. Don Fitzpatrick's Shoptalk, I think 
carriied the same article. However, not all were fired, according to the 
article.  The names cited, I believe, were 3 fulltimers, but admit to not 
being fully aware of their schedules and agreements.
