Oh, I never saw that, normally he controls himself. Could you give me a reference to that?

>I don't necessarily disagree with everything JVP says, but I completely reject the sophistry and circumlocution. IMHO that needs to be exposed so people understand when they are being dished up slogans rather than expertise. IMHO it is also a self-fulfilling prophesy- what would a developer considering moving to VFP think if JVP's copious prophesies of doom are not challenged. And it is no longer safe to refer potential customers/employees to UT as a sign of breadth of support for VFP when there is a prophet of doom shrieking at every opportunity that "VFP is a scuttled ship that cannot be rescued" and all the rest of it. IMO it has gone beyond an irritation to be ignored, to actual damage for people who rely on VFP.

I know to some people his words can cause harm, although I cannot possibly relate to those people due to my current position.
