Surely (don't call me Shirely:) it has to be something more than "VFP is dying, so switch to C#!", or "We have found, through internal case studies, that all those ex-VB benchies prefer C# seminars and MS buffets in Redmond to "buy your own lunch" styled VFP boot camps in Denver!".

They have full service stations in highend hoods here in Houston. The gas at those place is a buck more/gal than the run of the mill self serve. I think thats a good idea.
