There is, indeed.

Sean's farewell was indeed graceless at best -- and actively insulting 
to the Irish Linux community in its unsupported assertion of
anti-American sentiment.  (When I was last in Ireland, I found
hospitality just about everywhere.)

As several commented, things are tough just about everywhere.  I'm
sympathetic with everyone who's encountering the tough job market,
not just in Silicon Valley where I live and [crosses fingers] still
work.  Especially sysadmins.

It's a sad situation for everyone.  I hope people will be slow to
respond out of anger.
