but Pinnacle and FoxTalk (and me) had nothing to do with setting up these awards.

Interesting... What then was FoxTalk's involvement? The FoxTalk masthead prominently displayed next to the description of what the awards are supposed to represent. I gather that FoxTalk's/Pinnacle's participation was from a sponsorship standpoint only.

This scenario contrasts greatly with with the SQL show. SQL Magazine took an active role in that their senior technical editor is judging the awards. Further, companies had an opportunity to enter their products. I wonder why the same setup was not used for the VFP Show?

With all of this in mind, will Pinnacle pull away from sponsoring the awards? Will Pinnacle call for the awards to be cancelled???

This thing becomes a bigger farse by the minute...< s >...
