However, I for one would vote no. I have benefitted greatly from Art's advice over the years, the "Kagel Buffer Ratio" (KBR) being the most recent example. Keep it rolling, Art. Besides, if we do it for one, then others will want their own news group, and then we would have informix.jonathan-leffler, informix.obnoxio-the-clown, and so on. By the way, anybody heard from Billy Wheeler lately? ==================================================================== Harold Luse Phone: (970) 491-4120 Veterinary Teaching Hospital Fax: (970) 491-4123 Colorado State University Pager: (970) 229-8173 Fort Collins, Colorado USA E-mail: hluse@vth.colostate.edu ====================================================================

Careful, Luse, The Clown may actually take you up on that. I can hear him beginning a tally of votes now! > By the way, anybody heard from Billy Wheeler lately? I used to think that Billy had morphed into Obnoxio but he's not funny enough. Art S. Kagel
Clem Akins went to work for a new Startup Company and has left Informix. Whether he still lurks here is matter for conjecture...
