mine does. and i've hired two people in the past five years who had *no*  
programming experience. what you're forgetting is that php is easily  
learned. i may want to hire someone like this so that in appreciation for my  
investment, they want to stay around rather than job hop. i also may need  
their expertise in their field of competency...which can be more difficult  
to teach an experienced developer (or one of any programming experience for  
that matter) that it would be to teach them php...that would be a tremendous  
find and a great return on investment.
