No Lou, I'm talking about shutting out new talent and innovation because of fear or laziness. I'm no newbie to this platform, having started with the S/36 while in high school. My entire career is based on midrange, and I love our platform. But I've NEVER worked for a shop where I didn't have to fight (sometimes in peril of losing my job) for the adoption of new technology. I know that not all shops work this way, but I believe (based on MY experiences) that most midrange shops adopt this ambivalence to change. I have felt frustrated by this again and again, and feel that this attitude is killing our platform.... Ageist? Perhaps.... Again, in my experience, the senior exec(s) in IT sets the tone and direction of the shop. If the tone comes across as "do it the way we've always done it", then innovation is immediately eliminated.... I know my original post was worded to be somewhat offensive. I'll apologize for that, but I stand by my notion that we "professionals" need to be more accepting of new ideas. We need to dazzle the young talent with possibilities instead of forcing them into submission. We must accept that what we did in 1986 is not applicable to today's application consumers.

If you want a job where they use the latest technology, then get one. What's the problem? Corporations don't exist for the sole purpose of offering you an opportunity to play with the latest toys. If you are really hearing things like "ILE is a no-no in this shop", your answer should be "thanks for the opportunity, but I don't think I'd be a good fit here". Your other comments could easily be construed as ageist, but I'll be charitable and say that they just sound confused. Regards, - Lou Forlini Software Engineer System Support Products, Inc.
