>>Now you sound more and more like an M$ apologist. You and Andy can take the "blame it on the community" concept and go jump in a lake!

>>Russell, cool your jets...no need for that.

>Yeah, there is a need for that. What Andy said (and what Cathy said by saying she agreed with him) is horse manure and arrogant. She told me all about how much love she has for VFP and the community and how hard she worked. Then she arrogantly says that if it weren't for the "gurus" and MVPs, VFP would have been killed even sooner (as if they are the only ones that count, as if they are the only ones that make a difference, as if they are the only ones voicing concerns and lobbying M$ - and by the way, if that's true, it's an even bigger mark against M$ for only listening to the privileged few). But then when it is EOLed, she turns around and supports Andy's contention that this is the community's fault. That is arrogant and ignorant at the same time. It is insulting to the extreme and I stand by my statement. And who are you to talk? You can be acerbic yourself and you've long been sniping at VFP.

I don't think I have ever seen Kevin snipe at VFP. I see him stand up about uneducated incorrect comments made abobout .NET that just happened to be made by vocal VFP'ers. but I have never seen Kevin insult, snipe, or discount VFP itself. If you can provide links to messages showing otherwise, then I will stand corrected.
