RE: RMAN

I could use some "professional help," Walt will vouch for that. :-)

Hey Jared,

One of the publishers asked me to write such a book but I declined because:

1) It's a lot of work; 
2) It doesn't pay; 
3) I'd have to get into 9i and setup quite an infrastructure to do a 

   thorough job and test so many scenarios and setup variables;

4) I lack self confidence;
5) I don't want to be an over-achiever;
6) I want to have a life;
7) Etc.

So how's your book coming? :-)

Not very likely. The tech book market is in the dumps already, and this book would be rather esoteric.
