Re: RPG Cycle

Chris,

If your intent was to set off a religious war:-) you have selected the
right topic.  My super cringes at the mention of cycle programming. 
Others I have associated with swear by it.  I to went to school about
the same time and in my present job I have had the "opportunity" to work
with it, it's a fairly simple process of read-process-write and can be a
tool for simple report generation, but it can get old quick when you
have to go in and alter. Of course that has been my experience.
