Re: Question on Reorganizing IBM Files...

Or the time we had a consultant telling a co-worker of mine that removing

I happened to over hear this and while NOT normally a budinsky (sp ?) I said 
"And
what about running debug" to which he replied "Huh ?" so I had to explain.

Not to MENTION that I was preparing our CISC to RISC move  !!!!!
