Typical MarkA. Trying to understand something? Becoming educated on the subject? Never the criteria.

And no different from his knee-jerk assumption that I don't have years of experience with DB2. On the mainframe. At Boeing. He, in his personal reality, assumes that if you use another product in preference to DB2 it means he has permission to manufacture any claim he wishes and then pronounce it as though it were fact.

Luckily the world only works that way in politics, court rooms, and on the lots of used car dealers.
