Hello James and Booth,

For what it is worth "the client" often needs to have better approaches 
explained to them.  Just because an 
existing implementation works in some way is no reason to perpetuate it.

The aphorism that "the customer is always right" is simply not true.

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
