Hackers, attackers The huge population of laid-off Manhattan "dot-commers" is itching to get back into action, reports the New York Post. Now there's a groundswell of support for a lobbying effort directed at Democratic Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton and Charles E. Schumer to establish what they're calling "e-WPA" — a 21st-century version of the agency that created jobs in the Great Depression. They have a definite mission in mind.
