Kevin, I've often expressed my admiration for your ability to communicate technical subjects in a way that is practical and approachable. The Baker's Dozen consistently has some of the best written instructional pieces I've seen in my 30 years in this business.

Very good stuff. Bravo.

Hi, Charles, thanks VERY much, I appreciate the kind words.

After almost 2 years away, I'm pretty much submitting articles to them on a regular basis again, mainly in the database/business intelligence area.
