You betcha.  A couple of years ago, there was a _tremendous_ need for
programmers to produce "cellular accounting/billing" software in Atlanta
in preparation for the Olympics.  However, apparently the Olympic Park
bomber was not carrying a cellular at the time, so alas, another crime
has gone unsolved...
