I recommend you look up how scientific method works. Because you have taken an absolute position, if I can cite a single example where your position is wrong, your argument is disproven. QED. You can quote as many supporting examples as you like without "proving" anything. Such is the joy and hurt of an absolute position.

To date, you have not cited an example of where my position is deficient. As for the scientific method, I am well aware of it.

I don't have the source code, therefore, I cannot fix it...


>As for "coming after" you; my concern is that scoffing and belittling commentary causes some people to shy away and we never get to hear their experience. Even if people are "wrong" it is good to hear and discuss their viewpoints. We all learn. I will always pipe up if I see scoffing and belittling slogans in a technical discussion.

SOme people have come forward to discuss RV's. You don't see me biting off their heads, do you?? At least they have offered some substantive technical contributions...

An example quoted elsewhere about RVs against the AS400, for example, is something I had not seen here before but it is an example where SP is out of the question. We all have a responsibility to ensure that our actions do not make participation so unpleasant that it is easier to shut up than to share important experience like this.

The problem is not with the AS/400 per se, it is the way they have implemented their solution. If they don't allow the user to write SP's, the developer does not have a choice but to render client-side SQL. However, that does not mean the developer has to use a RV. He can use SPT instead. You keep wanting to munge SPT and SP's together. I try to separate them. Nice try!


>So cut the scoffing and belittling slogans. The ball is in your court.

I don't think I have done that. Rather, I have solicited technical input from you. To date, you have offered none. Thankfully, others took up the slack.
