I knew that it still worked, but I was concerned that you had left yourself open to ridicule from someone looking at that piece of code and saying "I thought business objects weren't supposed to directly call a 'form' PEM." And what's even more amazing is that I recognized this as not n-tier.

Makes perfect sense to me! < g > BTW, the guy with me is Bob Reagan, who's purchased the framework too and who I am trying to convince to get his company to spring for a week's training in Charlottesville... He was driving so I had to leave with him, but we both liked your talk and where you're heading. We want to hop on that train.
