Marshall,

In another forum, my tag line is:

"Information is what you want; data is what you are given."

So I guess I have to accept his hairsplitting difference.

And I continue to assert: the heart of the system is the data.

If Andrew wants to dismiss me as wrong, so be it. Received on Tue May 30 2006 - 21:30:07 CEST
