Hi Celko

You made the comment that "Oracle is a horrible product" and argued the point (rather verbosely) that such an assessment was due to your dislike of the connect by clause.

The fact there (may) be better alternatives than the connect by clause with Oracle hardly constitutes Oracle being a horrible product.

I mean, there is a tad more to Oracle than connect by ........

Hope the cover to your new book is fresh and exciting lest people think it a horrible book ;)
