That's interesting, but (off the point of this email exchange), it puzzles me 
-- many corporations headed by non-lawyers have lawyers on staff, so I'm 
guessing that the statement you made applies only to organizations like law 
firms, or, the lawyers on the staff of a non-law corporation are in something at 
least a little different than the normal employer / employee relationship.

(PS: I stand corrected on Kuhn being a lawyer -- thanks for the correction.)

Now I have to debate (with myself) whether to prune the cc list -- I forget 
the original post -- was it really this widespread?
