RE: CRTORAPKG

Just to clarify a few things.

First, I mis-worded the description of the CRTORAPKG. I did not mean to
imply that it generated the RPG source. It takes RPG source, does something
to it, and creates a program (I think) that does something with oracle
database access. Since it doesn't work, I'm not sure what it does exactly.

Second, I wanted to follow up on the comment about the coronavirus. A few
weeks ago I was of the same mindset...it's the flu people, let's get on with
life and quit panicking everyone. Not anymore. The consensus from all of
the daily updates that I have heard here in the US in the past few days
(presidential and governor press conferences, etc.) is that it is worse than
the normal flu and the even bigger issue is the contagiousness of it. It is
spreading considerably faster than any flu in recent history and because of
this, there will be more people sickened from it and therefore more people
will die from it. The initial numbers that were released about a month ago
showed a possibility of 160M to 230M people would be infected with it in the
US alone. Considering that we have about 330M people living here, that
means 50 - 75% of the US population would become infected. That number has
already been reduced because people are taking it seriously and listening to
the CDC and WHO guidelines. The recent numbers from the worldometer website
are showing that 1 out of every 24 people contracting it are dying from it.
Please take this virus and all of the warnings seriously.
