Point taken.  I am an unabashed self-promoter, and I never said my halo was
particularly shiny <grin>.  I also occasionally go a bit overboard in
providing an alternate viewpoint when I see comments that I personally think
are perhaps less than accurate.  The issue of LANSA/4GL was one such
conversation where I did indeed monopolize the bandwidth probably more than
the topic deserved.

At the same time, I like to believe I contribute quite a bit to the
community.  In the last three weeks I've given eight labs and three sessions
to the user community at public conferences, and only three of them were
related to my architecture <smile>.  Seriously, I talk quite a bit about the
merits of using Java and OO techniques in conjunction with RPG (and have
been for years), trying to move iSeries application programming to a more
client/server architecture.  PSC400 is an outgrowth of that endeavor, rather
than the impetus.

Regardless, I will take my tarnished halo and put it back in storage where
it belongs.  Thank you for your gracious but on-target reply.

Joe
