Dear Henry,

        Please reconsider this issue !!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sure there are many-many more who want to request not to remove Steve and would support my mail, but are afraid that other's mail-box would fill up by these request only..

        To be frank & honest, he is the only list member who has a folder in my outlook( I am not offending any-body else)........

        Seriously ... please dont' do this........

Best Regards,
Rajesh

i hope this thread is still alive.... and my reply makes it to the list...

by removing Steve from the list , we all will miss the insight into oracle
internals,
which he provided , thru his answers and the links (plugs ? ) to his website..

many threads would end when Steve provides his explanation/answer, this show

the respect posters have for his knowledge or Oracle.

please reconsider

Regards
Rahul
