You are wrong here. Today I interviewed a person with VFP, VB, Visual Interdev, and a handful of other skills. The flexible will always try to learn as much as possible about the tools available to do the job. Although they may have a personal favorite - this person's happened to be VFP - their ability to match the right tool with the right problem will only make them more valuable on the market.
