In a perfect world, one would not respond to a question in usenet and ignore the fact that three other people have already given perfectly good answers, posting your own just to see your name on the usenet. But it happens herein, and is very frustrating.

I belong to several Oracle DBA listservers and find I get a faster, better quality response most of the time than when I call Oracle Support.
