Wow! That's great. I've finally found a consultant who knows my requirements without me having to tell them. </sarcasm>

I'm calling your bluff. Please tell me where in this (or any other) thread I revealed the field of work I'm in and the requirements I've got. Also, please tell me where you think I told you what DBMS I'm currently using, because (as far as I recall) I didn't mention it once.
