Hee hee, you're right, Larry.  I have been a bit snotty.

You do, though, realize that despite my juvenile antics I've been in the 
field as long as most folks on the list, right?  Just checking <grin>.  
I did the math the other day; this is my 30th year in the industry - 
that is, supporting myself full time writing code for the midrange 
platform.  Yeah, there are folks with a little more background, but not 
a lot of 'em, and not a lot more time.  They don't call me "grampa" for 
nothin'.  I'm getting old.

And crotchety as well, I see.  Once again, I let a couple of people get 
under my skin and for that I do apologize.  I'm trying to do better, 
really I am.

P.S. Sorry you don't like the book.  It really is good.  Jon Paris wrote
