     Jon Sez: Yep, it's true. for the very first time during this 
administration, the net monthly job gain matched the AVERAGE monthly job gain during the 
Clintion administration. Just maybe the city should keep on promoting jobs, 
one decent month out of 37 doesn't exactly swerve the norm. Oh, unemployment 
went up. Course none of those new unemployed could have come from the city could 
they?
