Re: IDS as a "legacy" system...
In a thread about IDS as a legacy system, Neil Truby and Obnoxio The Clown traded jokes about who was irritating. RedGrittyBrick posted a mock quiz about regular contributors, and Ian Michael Gumby said he had agreed with Neil but that it conflicted with what IBM told IDS users. Banter only, no technical content.

[ ] Every regular contributor to c.d.i is an irritating twat. [ ] No contributor to c.d.i has any Informix work to keep them busy.

I believe that I'm agreeing with what he said, however, that didn't jibe with what IBM has been telling the IDS faithful. And that's the point. Unlike dealing with you, where the point starting to sink in is pointy end of a pick ax stuck in your head. Is that point starting to stick in? _________________________________________________________________ See how Windows connects the people, information, and fun that are part of your life. http://clk.atdmt.com/MRT/go/msnnkwxp1020093175mrt/direct/01/
