The BBOFT has no place in this discussion. It's a matter of the track record of the publication - and FPA is slipping, badly, and from my POV as a reader, it's hurting the VFP community that doesn't participate on-line. John's point is that the editorial staff needs to get their facts straight - perhaps by spending more time considering and reviewing the content that they publish, and if their readership is pointing this out to them, perhaps it's time for the editorial staff to take a long, hard look at what they print, and consider what obligation they have have to their readership. If they don't feel a need to get the facts straight, it's time for the readership to express their displeasure by voting with their wallets to seek out alternative sources of information. I don't care a hoot what some-semi-mythical religious figure say in a work of fiction; I subscribe to FPA in order to get an accurate source of information on the FoxPro world. If FPA can't get it right, I'm all in favor of nailing them up at Easter - just remember the carpenter's last words to your Messiah:

Please cross you legs - I only have one nail left.
