I know for certain I didn't post on Monday April 2nd 'cause I was in meetings all day at Oracle HQ...

I don't think personal attacks are right, ever. I get my share of them. As for oracle-l, however, I do dislike the fact that it has morped into a non-stop series of questions that should be fired off at an Oracle Support tech in their first-line support organization. Posters on that list pay a LOT of money to Oracle for support but don't use it. Now that fact alone would be an interesting thread.

Or is it that there are thousands of people that have free downloads and are running in production without paying for support? Ponder that for a moment. If it weren't for the free downloads, the list might look a lot different. Received on Thu Apr 05 2007 - 13:44:26 CDT
