Bunk. I did not start this thread. Please note the thread Subject. Please
view the discussion history.

I didn't make this up to make my point, this thread was a discussion of
programming standards which issued from a post concerning the migration to
ILE from RPG IV.

If the thread had been a discussion of programming tools, suppose the
original topic had been "Code 400 Propaganda", then your comments might have
fit in.

Certainly the word standards might mean "100 different things to 100
different people" but maybe those people should try to put it in the context
of the discussion they are in. Or, once they discover that they have made a
mistake in that area, they should gracefully admit their error rather than
trying to blame it on the others in the discussion.
