I think we can agree Corps doesn't hunt down runners just for
kicks... :)

That is, they must have a GOOD reason to - and if they have a good
reason, then the possible depletion of runner pool is a very
secondary consideration.

*chuckle* Of course, if the corporations did hunt runners just for
farting on the gounds, then if you *were* a runner you had to be
pretty damn good. (Or have a spihncter like a vice.:).
