Hi Ron

As the poster who originally highlighted DB's article as offering "some good recommendations", you probably feel a little silly and somewhat embarrassed. However this attempt to deflect attention away from the article and somehow discredit the "messenger" who gave it the technical analysis it deserved comes across as rather limp and feeble.

How about you do yourself and this newsgroup a favour and turn this whole silly discussion around and focus on the "technical" aspects of this article. Ron, I offer you a little challenge that may help you to save some face and show your technical worth to Oracle Land out there. Why don't you respond to my technical analysis and highlight exactly why I'm wrong with my summation that the article is tripe. Please go through each of my points and simply explain to me where I'm wrong with each point and why you think the article has "some good recommendations".

You obviously think I have "personal agendas, vendettas and prejudices" and that my assessment of the article is wrong and unfair. Well Ron, prove it !!

Oh, and to be consistent, please reference the *original* version of the article, not the version that was hurriedly re-written the day after I posted my original response to *your* recommendation. It's still tripe but at least it has now addressed some of the inaccuracies that *I* highlighted.

Because it you can't prove me wrong, if you can't offer valid *technical* arguments to support your claims, then one can only suggest you agree with my assessment and that I'm afraid it is you dear Ron that appears to have "personal agendas, vendettas and prejudices".

I look forward to your response, although I won't be holding my breath ...
