George,

This is a medical emergency! I think John's OD'ed on VFP. The only known cure is BEER, lots of it.

>>Hi Guys,
>>
>>The Creative is a transition step in the I-Ching, the tenet of Tao. Let us reflect on this transition and how it might apply to coding to bring us enlightenment and harmony.
>>
>>First Transition: Transition of the lowest aspect.
>>I am given someone elses application.
>>I am not publicly intimidated. I hold concealed strength
>>
>>Second Transition: Transition upon the earth leads to fellowship
>>I call the applications developer.
>>We laugh about users follies.
>>I dare not mock his framework.
>>
>>Third Transition: Transition above the earth leads to danger in conduct
>>I arrive to worried assessment of the project.
>>I must be wise and creative.
>>All public variables and MPR code is contemplated.
>>
>>Fourth Transition: Transition below the sky tames small concerns and provides freedom of choice.
>>I propose redesign using a familiar framework.
>>I am true to my nature and comfortable.
>>
>>Fifth Transition: Transition in the sky, leaders find their rightful place and bring forth good fortune
>>Client senses my harmony.
>>Client approves large contract.
>>My bank account achieves bliss.
>>
>>Sixth Transition: Transition at the end of things chastises the arrogant and leads to departure.
>>I deliver the product.
>>Changes made to the architecture do not conform.
>>I argue.
>>I am disharmonious and am asked to leave.
>>
>>Total Transition: When the Creative undergoes change the way of the Universe becomes manifest
>>
>>I have not been faithful to myself
>>I lose my place
>>My bank account turns red
>>I am screwed
>
>ROFLMAO! Gonz, I think you've flipped out. Looking at old code too much perhaps.
