I was laid off on Friday May 23. When I went to the ISP Resource Center this week, I felt vaguely uncomfortable. After thinking a minute I realized why - every single laid-off person there was a white man in his 50s! I'm not used to such uniformity, at LLNL or anywhere else. Is this a coincidence or is something going on here?
Scooby's note: Look at the poll on the side bar: 42% are > 50.

I was there and saw two women, one in her 40s and another in her 30s, and two men in their 30s (counting myself). I also saw some grey hairs. I was only there for less than 15 minutes.
I imagine the 200s that will be using the facility long-term are more heavily weighted to the older white male demographic.
Ditto: I went Tues and made same observation: white males > 55.
I wonder how many white males are in population over 50. 200's?
Maybe they will have to disclose if there is a lawsuit!
I went there today and there were 3 women and the rest were older, 50+ people.
Perhaps the young people have computers at home and don't need to come?
Scientist white male ~50 is the demographic of LLNL!
