Sorry, I don't know what' you're talking about. I could explain why OTC may have a vested interest in his running blog, but then he'd probably want to kill me. ;-) I don't have any such interest and my point was that if you're just going to google any net new links since your last search, you should really take the time to do your homework. After all, there aren't that many net new links. I mean heck. Jerry Keesee spoke of a win with the US military. Yet on further inspection, one wonders if he was talking about the 'no-bid' win where the US Army may have second thoughts about their migration to Oracle and wanted to hedge their bets as they roll out the next generation of their app. Oh and I did provide the links as well as the applicable quote. Typical sock puppet. If you're going to quote Monty Python, I'd imagine that you're the 'old man' in their Holly Grail movie where he's 'not quite dead yet'...
