Anyone who needs a dose of "Humble Pie" should take a look at any code =

they wrote say 10 years ago.  If you don't come away with "what the heck =
was I smoking" from that exercise, then your deeply in need of a new set =
of glasses.  Yes we were all novices once, and we've all pulled off that =

great AW $*&t several times. If we, the list members, can save one = newbie from doing the same then this list has paid it's dues, in full.

BTW: If there's a way to do something in Oracle WRONG, I've done it. = Probably twice. And if you feel that's worth a good laugh, enjoy.
