Well, it was worth a try! :)
Actually, it made me remember some of the classic vendor presentations I've
walked out of in the past. Things like the You Probably Shouldn't Need to
Reorg by a vendor of a reorg product, who then went ahead and told us that one
of the few valid reasons for reorging was b-tree indexes getting out of balance
(for example, with one branch 3 deep and another 4)!
Ah yes, I remember so well the feeling of choking back laughter as I ran from
the room. :)

Nice try, Pete :-). Nah, I think the non-professional vendor
presentation is a relief compared to the professional vendor
presentation where you can barely keep from suddenly joining the BAARF
party...
By the way, I used to know a girl called Charlotte. I was part of the
Charlotte User Group, actually.
Enough. I'll have another Glenlivet 12 Years right now.
