Yeah, I saw that article too. I'll refrain from speculating who he refers to, particularly with the "pontifications of theoreticians and ivory-tower academics..." comment.

Haha, I didn't catch the Alabama joke when I first skimmed the article...;-)

What can I say?

My momma taught me if I don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

So, I'll stop now.

You guys are going to enjoy this :-).

I just read a very interesting article that managed to insult some of my favorite Oracle authors and the entire state of Alabama! Now I've heard Mr. Burleson speak before, and I must admit that I thought he was a dynamic and entertaining speaker. But do you really think that Oracle Support has ever told anyone to call HIM to solve their performance problems (his article makes this claim)? Does anyone else find the tone of this article unbefitting of an Oracle professional with such extensive credentials? I honestly can't believe that DBAzine.com published this, especially considering that Oracle is listed as one of their sponsors.
